Most are happy where they live and will not flee the city now that residency is lifted. They are invested in their communities, churches and schools just like any other family. The public should not vilify all officers. Most of your officer neighbors have been going to work everyday just like you do, not spending their time pushing the residency issue or any other political issue for that matter. Our safety forces (police and fire) deserve the respect and support of the public that they go to work for every day.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2509576463606701643.post-27266467951364196082009-06-11T11:53:12.216-04:002009-06-11T11:53:12.216-04:00===========
