Tuesday was National Peace Officers Memorial Day and this entire week is National Police Week. It is an excellent time to remember those men who have given their lives in an effort to protect ours.

It’s not just for the ones who have lost their lives, but also it’s for those who are dedicated to protect us now, for those who patrol our streets, keeping a watchful eye out for us so we may feel secure and sleep well at night.

It takes a special kind of person to accept a position as an officer of the law. He is brave and confident to begin with, but he also has to care about others. I commend them all. We ought to shake their hands every time we have the opportunity.
