The Troubled one is on the way to New Orleans. The governor of Arizona has asked for volunteers from the border patrol to go and help keep the peace. This is another one of those situations that I keep putting myself in that I should say no to, but can't. For anyone who practices their faith, say a prayer tonight for everyone involved in this tragedy.
Reports of rape, murder, beatings, looting and now shooting at the helicopters and buses that are trying to get the people out, well plain and simple they just need help. This part of my life (law enforcement) just keeps pulling me back. The fact that I retired (several times now) is a word that when spoken in our house, my wife just starts laughing.
I will try to update all of you on how it goes when I return. Well gotta go pack. Take care all of you.
i think its wonderful the way people are pulling together to help . you are a good person to give of your time. take care, be safe and may god bless you and your family
