Awesome. Thank you to all the Law Enforcement Officers

Just the other day, I was at a stoplight next to a local city Police Officer. Rolled down my window and thanked him for his service. He seemed surprised at first, but also thankful for the comment

Thanks for the reminder Tim.
Most people appreciate our LEO's everyday, but it's good to have a designated day to acknowledge that they do a job for us that few of us would want to do ourselves. to those that serve!

I'd like to think the "appreciation" was also interpreted as "understanding of the challenges of the job".
We see a lot of criticism of Police behaviour that reflects a complete lack of understanding of the 'dynamics' of the situation (not to mention an ignorance of the broader context/circumstances in which events occur.)

It is always nice to hear someone appreciates Law Enforcement and the job I do trying to help the community. I have been at this since 1986 and have been told thank you more in the last year or so than all the other years combined. So, I thank all you that go around and thank you local Law Enforcement. It really does mean a lot to us when you say that. Most times we are called but not wanted.

To all those who offered a thanks here and in the course of your day, I say thank you right back. Those random thank yous make the job worthwhile and we do notice and appreciate them. Sadly, tragedy strikes even on days like this.

I am so grateful that I have a nice pension from my police service. My wife is still a working police officer and everyday when she leaves for work, I make sure she knows how proud I am of her and I remind her to please stay safe.

So, to all the still working police officers out there, I’m proud of the work you do and please stay safe.
