    Say it, don't spray it... I want the news, not the weather

    As police officers, we are the microcosm and front line visible images of local, state, and federal government.  When we intentionally abuse our powers and make erroneous decisions, criticism comes from various entities and the profession becomes tarnished.  In order to counteract the tiny portion of our profession who do not belong, we need to look inward and criticize those LEOs who tarnish the badge.

    Gee... Who would have seen that coming???

    Following the tragic death of George Floyd, Minneapolis was the beacon and the starting point for cries of, “Defund the police.”  In response to public outcry, the Minneapolis city council voted unanimously to spend $6.4 million dollars to recruit more police officers.  We discuss this hypocrisy and what this means for the city of Minneapolis from two outsider perspectives.
