other than to further
other than to further increase the lack of proactive policing, which is growing increasingly common today. In the end, the only winners in this odd social experiment being foisted on the American people are the career criminals, the gang bangers, and the extreme social activists. Speak out when you get a chance, explain these things to citizens whenever you can, write editorials, and keep faith that we will collectively come to our senses soon. A positive note among all the negatives is that the Fox show “COPS” is returning to a TV near you. It is a clue that, in this bizarre time, corporate powers are realizing that Americans love their police, and watching us do our daily activities further reinforces the difficulty of the job and reveals the mental gymnastics required to do the job well and “keep your head when all about you are losing theirs,” to quote Rudyard Kipling. So, for all of you still on street in the fight and keeping us safe, have faith. I believe if we keep our wits, keep speaking the truth, hang tough, and never give up, we will win. 18 The BLUES POLICE MAGAZINE The BLUES POLICE MAGAZINE 19
