Well gang - another headline in the news about impaired driving.
This time its a Metro Vancouver officer facing charges.
Why? When you see everyday first hand the destruction that drinking and driving has - why?
I am saddened and sickened - the credibility of the police services takes another big hit - again I ask, how do we teach children respect for these people when this is the headline they see?
I guess - as long as the courts do their job properly and give these officers the same sentence anyone else would get - then we still have some hope. We'll have to wait and see....
Back to work for me - the phone book goes to print tomorrow - so...back to the grind stone.
Stay safe and warm...

Where are the policemen of yesterday? And, I suppose the rest of us are somewhat at fault. I just read an interesting (and entertaining) account about the death of a British Columbia Colonial Policeman and the citizens who stepped in following his murder.
