I just had the most pleasant encounter with one of Jacksonville’s finest. This woman acted appropriately. She listened carefully. She was very calm. She was highly intelligent. She seemed capable and she was respectful.<\/p>\n
I cannot thank this city enough for appropriating the correct amount of resources into the “boys in blue.” I must add to that: You have hired a wonderful woman to patrol our streets and keep our children safe. She has responded to me with kindness and grace. This woman was a pleasant person to speak with and she answered my needs accordingly.<\/p>\n
May God bless your work and thank you for safeguarding this community. Not all of us are in the workforce. For those enfeebled such as myself, with loved ones to protect, you have my deepest and sincerest thanks and gratitude.<\/p>\n
And for those who can afford it and has transportation: Would you please purchase a dozen donuts or more from Hy-Vee or Dunkin’ and give it to these officers of the law? They risk their lives every day. … It is good to see a Godly and Christian police officer who knows how to enforce justice.<\/p>\n
Thank you.<\/p>\n
