The national organization is meeting in Detroit this week, and the Republican ticket stopped at the Renaissance Center to meet with the group that represents more than 325,000 police officers.

It' curious how the Fraternal Order of Police endorse the conservative Republican Party candidates when so many conservatives on this forum are anti-law enforcement. Strange bedfellows.

I think you'll find few (if any) people here to be "anti-law enforcement." I think you'll find plenty to be pro-liberty. There's a distinct difference there. I served 20+ years "protecting and defending" the U.S. Constitution; that was my primary and overriding charge.

This means LE ALWAYS happens within the constraints of the Constitution, and folks expect good judgement from LE. Given the difference between a bust and violating the Constitution, you don't violate the Constitution. That's all.
