“Every day, police officers pin on their shields and walk out the door, rushing into harm’s way to keep the rest of us safe,” a White House proclamation by President Joe Biden issued May 10 said. “Being a police officer is more than what they do — it is who they are. On Peace Officers Memorial Day and during Police Week, we recognize the incredible courage of our Nation’s police officers and honor the fallen heroes, whose ultimate sacrifice we can never repay.”

Remember that one time right after police got dashcam videos in that one state they kept raising up the hood of their cars to block the camera claiming it was to “stop the car from overheating”. Just a little snippet in police brutality.
Every day, police officers pin on their shields, black out their badge numbers, and block their dashcams, rushing in harmful ways to keep the rest of us unsafe.
