To law enforcement all over the nation,
There are people who support you and will stand by you. Some people still recognize the job you do. We respect what you do for our community. It is not easy to leave your family for 12 hours at a time and not know if you will be able to see your kids grow up or kiss your wife one more time. These are things every officer is worried about every time he buttons his shirt and turns his patrol car on at the start of each shift.

Society now has labeled all law enforcement officers as racist pigs who just want to kill people. The media does not recognize all the good officers do. I think this is where the problem lies. People are so use to turning on the news and seeing "Cop murders teen" or "Officer beat man to death." They do not actually look into the story to find out if the officer was in the wrong or defending himself. They automatically label him as a murderer without facts.

For the officers of the New Bend Police Department, they believe this is part of their oath. Take a look at this video and see how they change people's lives daily
They are are crooked people in every business throughout the world. The other people in that profession are not grouped into a category, so why do we put all police officers into one category? This is how people are starting to look at law enforcement and this is only going to lead to more problems.
In Idaho, officers responded to the house of a 911 prank where the children were African American. When the officers walked up to the door, the mother of the children were told the officers that she told her children not to "engage" the officers. Her reasoning was that the officers were the people who kill them. James Pasco, the executive director of the Fraternal Order of Police, says “The idea that police wake up, strap on their guns and in their badges, and sit around thinking about how they’re going to make lives miserable in the minority community – that’s just at variance with common sense.”
Police officers and their families are having to be extra cautious when going out in public because they are scared of retaliation. Innocent people are scared to leave homes because of a few bad apples. That is not right. James Glennon is a retired police lieutenant and says “Police officers are very, very upset at what’s going on now, and the way that 700,00 of us are being painted with a brush of racism and ill-intent and malevolent motivation – that we just want to go out there and hurt people, when it’s the exact opposite”. 99% of officers want to do good and just go home.
Police officers are on the defensive right now. They are worried that no matter what they do that they will criticized and shamed for protecting their communities This in only going to cause hesitation and hesitation will get them killed. The officers that break the law should be punished to the full extend the law. But the way it is now, police officers are automatically in assumed to be in the wrong. They deal with criminals and I am not saying that just because they are criminals they deserved to be killed but sometimes those people do not want to go to jail and do whatever the have to not go to jail. Sometimes that involves in fighting and trying to kill law enforcement officials. Officers have the right to defend themselves just like anyone else.
There are acts of kindness like this all over the United States by all police officers. I have shared 2 other videos with you along. Most officers are good people. So do not judge an entire group of people based solely on the actions of a few officers who feel like the law does not apply to them but judge them based on actions like this.
To the 99% of law enforcement officers who do the right thing, I, along with thousands of other Americans, thank you for your time and sacrifice you give to protecting the citizens of this great nation. We stand by you and respect everything you do. I personally can not wait to be one of you. Hang in there and keep doing your job.
Sincerely,
Witt Napier
