Law Enforcement Officers

 


 

Terry Orr 

 

Growing up in Kansas City, Missouri during the 1950s – 1960s we respected and honored our local Police Officers. Some of us were lucky enough to play baseball for the Police Department – it was truly an honor and rewarding experience. In some ways, those years help mold me into join the U.S. Navy – to protect our way of life.

 

In all walks of life, we have folks who fall into several different categories – those that excel, those who get up each and every day to do their best, those who just get up punch the time clock, those who are just passing time – waiting for another handout and those who are simply bad apples in the basket. History tells us that this has been a way of life since the beginning – sadly.

Thank you, Steve

 

If you are a Law Enforcement Officer and need a break, you can come park outside our house. If you are thirsty, we will bring you a drink. If you are hungry, we will fix you something to eat and serve you a good strong cup of coffee. If you are hot, we will invite you inside to cool off. If you need backup, we will stand with you. If you need to cry, we will hug you and let you. If you need to talk, we will listen. If you need to pray, we will kneel with you. If you are wrong, we will tell you. If you are right, we will support you.

 

We only ask that you don't lose faith in Americans. We are NOT all against you. Please see the good people that are here for you. We are not loud and obnoxious like these media seekers.

 

God bless you and your family and thank you all for all you do to keep my family and me safe!




Remember the next time you see a Law Enforcement Officer, they are people just like you and me, doing their very best to protect you and your family. Thank them for all they do, yesterday, today and tomorrow.
