You have no 'constitutional' rights, <br />To police protection. <br />The police are there to uphold the 'law'. <br />Public safety... <br />That's all! <br /> <br />And 'if' it has been determined, <br />That 'law' has been broken... <br />Guess who is going to jail? <br />That is certain. <br />Those 'laws' will prevail! <br />People yelling, 'Protect me and mine! ' <br />Will find themselves ignored, <br />Most of the time! <br />Police are trained to deal with you psychologically... <br />However, <br />Your individual needs... <br />Are not theirs to feed! <br /> <br />Your rights to protect yourself is best. <br />And that's why the streets are full of such unrest! <br />IF you have problems with this as it is... <br />Know what those laws are! <br />And why crime has risen... <br />Bringing folks to tears. <br />And your individual feelings, <br />Are not part of constitutional business! <br /> <br />You have no 'constitutional' rights, <br />To police protection. <br />The police are there to uphold the 'law'. <br />Public safety... <br />That's all! <br />And your taxes 'may' be used, <br />To fill a pothole!<br /><br />Lawrence S.
