I'm tired of hearing about the #DefundPolice movement. And seeing the hate directed at #LawEnforcement. Those outside the profession will NEVER know the sacrifices they make. The missed birthdays, anniversaries, holidays & dinners. 1/

The toll a shift not only takes on the body but also the mind. The anxiety that comes when dispatch says "officer needs assistance". The countless hours spent securing scenes, investigating deaths & dealing with the worst elements of society. 2/
