National Police Officers Week 2021[VIDEO]
This week, May 9-15 has been declared National Police Officers Week. May 15th is National Peace Officers Memorial Day, a day established in 1962 by President Kennedy.
Paul Harvey describes what a Police Officer is, in one of his best narrations. To all my Police Officer friends and their families, thank you for all that you do, and stay safe.
To those who say that there are bad police officers, yes there are, but there are bad members of any profession. Look for the good rather than the bad.
