Thank a law enforcement officer
Our law enforcement officers risk their lives daily to protect us. Often they are taken for granted, and/or unduly criticized. Whenever we see a law enforcement officer (including security guards), we should make it a point to say “thank you” to them. It could make a difference in their day. Where would we be without them?
