Law and Order 1

They scream assaults in their faces
Across the land in all places
Treat all law enforcement the same
When only the some are to blame
There are police with a good soul
Trying to help, in their work role
Dodging objects and spit their way
How do you think they sleep at night?
Told to stand down without a fight
We will not survive in this way
Without law and order today!

Caren Krutsinger Date: 7/3/2020 5:59:00 AM I truly think if the media went away, many of these problems would also go away. I believe sometimes people run toward the media to be "featured". Login to Reply Heidi Sands Date: 7/3/2020 10:45:00 AM The media makes matters worse, it appears. I am thankful I don't have cable stations hooked up lately for TV. I get the news from my phone and that is even too much. Just think how the media could be used in a positive productive way more to help make a difference! :)

Jennifer Proxenos Date: 6/25/2020 12:36:00 AM Unfortunately there are bad apples in every facet of society who spoil it for the peaceful protesters - they have another agenda in mind, their own - the police department is no exception. Serious sifting out must be done by Police commissioners, for there is good in every system of society, and it is up to the good guys to dig out the weeds out the die-hards and wipe out racism. We shouldn't say therefore all police are bad, that is not true. Blessings my friend, Jennifer. Login to Reply Heidi Sands Date: 6/25/2020 7:41:00 AM Yes...blessings to you :)

Tom Cunningham Date: 6/24/2020 2:02:00 PM A shame that all police are being shown in a bad light because of the actions of a few bad apples. If they were no police it would be like the wild west, people would have something to complain about then. Tom Login to Reply Heidi Sands Date: 6/24/2020 2:17:00 PM Tom, thank you, yes it is a shame.. And it is getting harder to watch every day. I have seen them run over by a car, screamed in their faces, objects thrown at them, their police station burnt down, etc. Yet, there are these here wanting to not only defund police, but dismantle police. (It is the way to rid of our front line defense to take over) and YES, they are treating them ALL the same :(

Rico Leffanta Date: 6/24/2020 1:52:00 PM Police officers are always on edge knowing they are THE target, so it is rather daft for anyone to believe they can resist arrest and there will be no consequence! The USA provides FREE defence for anyone who believes their arrest was not warranted. Aloha! Rico Login to Reply Heidi Sands Date: 6/24/2020 2:14:00 PM True, Rico. I appreciate your input on this. Thank you :)

Silent One Date: 6/24/2020 7:53:00 AM I agree not all police are the same....However I hear from a reliable source who have worked a lot with HR police that there is discrimination towards black people... I do despise generalisation though.... Login to Reply Heidi Sands Date: 6/24/2020 8:10:00 AM Thank you SO. I am going to put in a law and order part 2 ..to elaborate. :)

Vijay Pandit Date: 6/24/2020 7:11:00 AM We absolutely need law and order--I agree, Heidi. There are some who disregard rules--even police, and some protesters. Login to Reply Heidi Sands Date: 6/24/2020 7:40:00 AM That is right. Thank you Vijay :)

Maureen McGreavy Pigeon Tart Date: 6/23/2020 10:04:00 PM I have not been keeping up with the news in the US. I hope you are safe and well, and that peace comes sooner than later. Mo hugs Login to Reply Heidi Sands Date: 6/24/2020 7:40:00 AM Thank you Mo...hugs :)

Gershon Wolf Date: 6/23/2020 8:19:00 PM Agreed, 100%. Most effective when a woman writes these words (than when a hulk like me does). Without L&O, we've quickly got chaos! (Did you hear that even Seattle's Mayor is permitting police to disperse the CHOP 'residents' at night now. Miracles Happen). Keep fighting the good fight, my friend. Thanks, Gershon Login to Reply Heidi Sands Date: 6/23/2020 9:56:00 PM Thank your input Gershon. Yes , I heard she is going to do that in Seattle with Chop. Will see how that goes. I hope you keep up the good fight too! Goodnight :)
