    The police have got to have the tuffest job in the world. If you’ve ever worked a cash register you will know what I’m talking about. You never know who you next customer is going to be. What their attitude is going to be. What issues they might be dealing with at that moment. What intent they may be harboring. Be safe out there guys. I’ve been through more than you’ll ever know.
