Sometimes the job that needs to be done is one that isn't fun, sexy or safe. Our police officers go to work everyday to keep the community and families safe and in a good place. Nobody is perfect in a world full of choas but having trained, intelligent and invested police officers makes a hell of a difference.

The FoP boys sit down in order to look at our political landscape as things continue to heat up for national elections. Bret's take is that "we are not party affiliaited...and call it like we see it." How are these national issues affecting officers both across the country and here in the Intermountain West.
