I know alot of people have no room in their heart for Police Officer's and in a strange way, I understand that sometimes but before anyone makes a final judgement on all police officer's, please allow me to tell you my side of this debate.
I have been married to a police officer for twelve years....some good and some bad. He has seen some of the most tragic and de-humanizing sides of people and he has seen the best as well. He is the kind of police officer to stop at the house of a lonely elderly man who just lost his wife. He is the kind of police officer who will take the time to fix the mailbox for a family who can't afford to get it fixed for themselves....of course, he does this on his own time and with his own money.
He is the kind of police officer who cried at the drowning of a two year old little girl. This happened while I was pregnant with our son and to this day, he refuses to get a swimming pool. He is the kind of police officer who will drive a man to a hospital where his wife is fighting for her life and it doesn't matter how long it takes or how long he has to wait.
He is an excellent father to his son, he is an excellent husband to me and there isn't anything he wouldn't do for his entire family. His father is disabled and whenever he needs my hero, he is there.
My husband has been called just about every bad word you could think of......his patience has been put to the test.....and yet, he has this quality about him of never letting his anger get the best of him. His ability to stay in control in some of the worst circumstances is mind blowing and the respect he has of his junior officers is well known.
Am I biased? You damn right I am....police officer's don't get good quality press time. In fact, the only time cops get press time is when something has gone wrong. The press isn't interested in the truth about police officers....it's better stories for them! Al Sharpton and his cronies are the first to appear in front of a camera when a black person is killed at the hands of police officers and they aren't interested in the whole truth. It doesn't matter to them! Look at Tawana Brawley, this happened in my own back yard and the lives he ruined are just casualties in his quest for top black leader!
So, when you accuse all cops of being looters, murderers and whatever else you can come up with, please have the common courtesy of knowing all of the facts before you make final judgements. That is my hero you are talking about!!!
Not the miltia?
Your passion is awesome, particularly about the appeal you directed within a public forum. Keep in mind, however, no one that I know suggests anything bad about our guys/gals putting their lives on the line about our communities. You have misdirected the entire dialoge about our finest. You see, the people just don't care. And the government does likewise. Our government has created a police-state. The police-state is about the destruction of our God given rights while upholding an ephemeral operandi, linking government as the truth. And, it is a the truth that government is about creating a police-state. I apoligise that your husband is caught up in the debate about his dignity and about about yours. None of this would have happened if our government lived up to the Constitution that founded our nation.

Not the militia?
Run by the Joos and the Illuminati? Sober up.
adj : of or relating to a group of civilians organized to function like (or in aid of) a military unit n : a group of civilians organized in a military fashion (especially to operate in place of or to assist regular army troops) [syn: paramilitary organization]
Police departments are organized in a military fashion.
Wrong. Oops.
He must've wanted some job security or a reason to stay awake at night.
I have never placed a post ... or an article about Jews and any creed that may be a scoundrel about our rights and liberties other than government scumbags; certainly, never some mythical group called the illuminati. Your lies about my sobriety are more concerning than anything else. Are you attempting to damage my credibility?
