All right. I don't if you guys can see
this fence that's behind me, but this is
my fence in my yard. And this fence is
my responsibility to keep up. And I want
to use this fence as an analogy to kind
of talk about uh the police department
or police in our country and uh kind of
people's opinions of the police
department. So, like I said, this is my
fence. It's my responsible to keep it
up. It's freshly painted. I just painted
it over the last couple of weeks. I went
through while I was painting it. I
replaced a whole bunch of boards. If you
look at it, it looks pretty nice.
Although, there's still some spots. I
could walk you along. I could show you
where my dogs are trying to dig holes
under the fence and they've chewed on
the boards and some of the boards have
gone kind of rotten over the years.
They're still hanging, but they could
probably be replaced. But overall, I
mean, it's a pretty darn good fence. I
think it looks pretty good. It does the
job. Keeps my dogs in line as long as
they don't do something stupid and try
to chew through one of the boards. Uh,
this is very similar to our police
force, our police departments across the
country. Are our police departments
perfect? No. Uh, could you go through
every once in a while, kind of knock on
them, kind of replace some of the
boards, stuff like that? Do some of them
get kind of chewed up occasionally?
Yeah. But, uh, you know, this this
fence, it's here to keep my dogs in.
Does it keep the dogs in? Yeah. When my
dogs get out, is the fence the problem?
No. Fence isn't the problem. It's not a
perfect fence, but it's not the problem.
Just like our police departments.
