Quote of the Day: A Cop Who Gets It Edition

By Robert Farago

“I am sworn to serve and protect—a responsibility that I take on with a sense of pride as a calling, not simply a job. Yet I firmly believe that the first person in charge of your freedoms and self-preservation is you. I know that my brothers and sisters in law enforcement are willing to stand watch in the night against the evil in our society, but recent events have proven again and again that your personal safety can only be absolutely guaranteed by one person—and that person is you! That ability to protect oneself can never become outdated, or the very freedoms and individuality this great nation was founded upon would all be for naught.” – Sgt. Jacob Betsworth, Sarpy County (Neb.) Sheriff’s Department [via americas1stfreedom.com] [h/t BP]
