Are the police going extinct? Can they be saved? How and why did they become endangered? Whose bright idea was it to 'defund the police' - especially at the same time as inmates are being let out of jails and prisons? And who you gonna call when you're being robbed? raped? murdered? or when there's the next terror attack? Today's guest, Sergeant Betsy Brantner Smith, spokesperson for the National Police Association, will answer these questions and more - like: how do the police continue to put themselves on the line every day, risking their lives when it's not just the usual criminals out to get them, but protesters, rioters and looters? This is certainly not what they signed up for when they entered the Police Academy with visions of serving and protecting their communities. How is their morale? How are they coping? What are their plans for the future?
