An open letter to the employees in the hall who were bad mouthing police officers

Dear employees standing in a public hallway in a health care facility,

In the future, if your plans are to complain about police officers, call them useless, and wonder why we even need them, you might want to check that those who are within ear shot are not related to four police officers.  If you fail in your due diligence, you will make yourself sound like an ignorant, ungracious jerk.

Also, your statement that "Now that I have a handgun, all I need cops for is to write me tickets" seems a little short sighted.  First, you probably deserved all the tickets you have been given because your were probably speeding or violating some traffic law.  Second, do you actually think that now that you have the handgun, you would actually have the guts to use it, if the situation arises?  Third, can you imagine no circumstance where having a loaded handgun in the house could go horrible awry?  Fourth, do you plan to stop drunk drivers before they can smash into your family members?  Fifth, are you going to take down the meth lab in the trailer next door before they have your kids hooked or the trailer just plain goes "KABOOM!"?  Sixth, do you have any idea how quickly our society would turn third world violent without any police officers around?  Seventh and last, would you have run into the World Trade Centers in order save as many people as you could knowing full well your life could easily end that day?

No you wouldn't have.  Why?  Because you are a coward.

Sincerely,

Mike Terrell

P.S. Thank you Grandpa Winters, Uncle Bob, Uncle Dale and Keith for serving the public honorably and faithfully.
