Law and Order 3

How does my mind sort out both sides?
I have seen the worst and the best
Years were spent on justice regarding corruption
Due to victimization by corrupt police
But, saved by a good Lieutenant who was my best friend
In our righteous journey, to do what is right
Surviving his death when they killed him
Now, I know many police standing assaulted are good
But people who riot are unable to see both sides
As they torture the innocent, who do the same right
All individuals make their own choices
Even the criminals leading up to being wrongly killed
Anarchy is not the way to positive change
Now, survival is left for those who are strong willed

Arturo Michael Date: 6/26/2020 2:19:00 PM Many sad cases on the road to change...A lot of good people hurt and killed by the ruthless opportunist...

Thank you for taking the time to comment on these poems :)

Tom Cunningham Date: 6/24/2020 2:23:00 PM Anarchy has taken over, some people you just cannot reason with, it's their way or no way. They cannot get what they want so use crime to highlight their cause but they won't get much sympathy from law abiding citizens They would not get away with it in other countries, they would have taken strong action against the thugs. Too much freedom, they do what they like. I'd lock them up, ten years minimum. Innocent folk shouldn't have to put up with that in this day and age. Tom Login to Reply Heidi Sands Date: 6/24/2020 2:46:00 PM It certainly has Tom. They are also claiming territory areas, like they did in Seattle and trying to do in DC. They also think using crime and threats will get them their way. You are right, there is no sympathy from law abiding citizens. We have lost law and order and traveling down a very dangerous road here. Thank you for all your input. I appreciate your comments and support! :)
