Reflections for Police Officer Brian Howard Jackson

Jesus is my front sight,
Sovereign in my life.
In slumber, or in battle,
He guides my warrior stride.
Jesus is my front sight,
FOR HIM NO MAN I FEAR!
Jesus is my front sight,
Twas He who led me here.

Another officer's life taken at such a young age. It hurts me to know that your brothers and sisters in blue, youfr family, and your friends have just began their long journey in life. This is not easy to go through nor does it ever get easier. My heart and prayers are with your loved ones at this time of loss. Thank you for doing your job! No one deserves to die doing what they love. I hope justice will be served.

It is so disheartening to hear of this. This is my worst nightmare as a wife of an officer. I hope you find the strength to make it through this difficult time. All of the DPD family will be by your side in your time of need.
Thank you Officer Brian Jackson for paying the ultimate sacrifice!

Officer Jackson, There are few and far in between who would risk their own safety and life by running into a dark alley after a criminal. You did just that to serve and protect the people of that community. They should be on their knees giving Thanks. They should give their utmost support and respect to your family and fellow officers. I will never understand that we as a country will give millions to NBA/NFL/Actors/Musicians and so on, while "OUR" police and military receive a shameful pay! YOU are the "TRUE" HERO Officer Jackson. YOU along with the rest of your brothers and sister's in Blue. I appreciate and respect you all more than anyone else who walks this earth. God Bless your family.

TO: The family; loved ones; friends and department members: A POLICE OFFICER’S PRAYER:--- O, gentle Lord ! Keep the day/night watch with me. As I begin my tour of duty, I ask your protection from all mental, physical and spiritual harm. Sustain me with the knowledge that I am doing your work, endeavoring to keep peace among your people. Help me to be just as I enforce the law without prejudice or favor to anyone. May I be courageous but not reckless in carrying out my duties. Let me respond to all calls with haste realizing that so many are dependent upon me for life and safety. Support me with your consoling power when I am tempted to think no one really cares and that I am taken for granted. Sustain in me the conviction that so many thousands do care and are grateful for my presence. Grant that I may be loyal to my partner and my fellow officers, and that I may back them up effectively when called upon for assistance. Lord, I ask that I may return safely, after my tour of duty, to my loved ones and those who love me. I pray that I may be a good and honorable police officer; and after my tour of duty is over here on earth, may I enjoy the peace and happiness of heaven that you have promised to those who serve you well. AMEN. *** REST IN PEACE ***

Another Blue Warrior has finished his shift here on earth and has been called home. Officer Jackson should be remembered as a hero to his community and his country. While we slept he stepped into the darkness without fear to protect us. Officer Jackson, you have earned the right to walk a beat on Heaven's streets. You will never be forgotten!

Words will never compensate the loss you have suffered. We pray that He now gives you all strength in your time of need.

Nothing can bring this officer back, nor can he ever be replaced, but those he leaves behind can be certain that he lived and died to uphold the oath he gave when he took the badge. It's clear that he believed in his oath to serve and protect his community, and his fellow officers. He served that oath, unto death. I pray that the memories you have of him in happy times will help to ease the pain you're feeling now.
Rest easy, Brother; you will never be forgotten.

Another brother lost. For what? A domestic disturbance call. It always irks me when the papers describe something as "routine". A 'routine' traffic stop, a 'routine' disturbance call. There are no such things as 'routine' when it comes to calls for service.

To Officer Jackson's family and friends...May God be with you in your time of need. To the coworkers of Officer Jackson - lean on each other now and be there for each other as I'm sure you always are.

Thank you for your sacrifice and for the dedication you showed your community.

I was really sad to hear that another one of our finest had been killed. He was so young, and he was also just married 2 months ago. Officer Jackson, may you rest in peace, you have done your time in hell. Enjoy your new detail room, Im sure it's beautiful.

Who You'd Be Today"

Sunny days seem to hurt the most.
I wear the pain like a heavy coat.
I feel you everywhere I go.
I see your smile, I see your face,
I hear you laughin' in the rain.
I still can't believe you're gone.

It ain't fair: you died too young,
Like the story that had just begun,
But death tore the pages all away.
God knows how I miss you,
All the hell I've been through,
Just knowin' no-one could take your place.
An' sometimes I wonder,
Who'd you be today?

Would you see the world? Would you chase your dreams?
Settle down with a family,
I wonder what would you name your babies?
Some days the sky's so blue,
I feel like I can talk to you,
An' I know it might sound crazy.

It ain't fair: you died too young,
Like the story that had just begun,
But death tore the pages all away.
God knows how I miss you,
All the hell I've been through,
Just knowin' no-one could take your place.
An' sometimes I wonder,
Who you'd be today?

Today, today, today.
Today, today, today.


Sunny days seem to hurt the most.
I wear the pain like a heavy coat.
The only thing that gives me hope,
Is I know I'll see you again some day.

Some day, some day, some day.
