Comment Of The Day — Susan Cuff

Susan Cuff (RE: Espy: Why was I pulled over? ): Full disclosure for those who don’t know me: I’m married to a retired law enforcement officer. You might think that makes my opinion biased and no longer relevant. What it actually has been for me is an opportunity to know the human side of law enforcement officers. To know how they struggle with their choices, agonize over decisions, and bear the brunt of what is often - literally - a spat-upon job. They are not perfect but I believe in my heart that the majority of them are in it for the right reasons and do the right thing. I have never worked in a job in which every day that I go to work is a day that someone could potentially look down the barrel of a gun and take a shot at me. It would be hard to do that job for self-centered reasons.
