My heart breaks for Arnulfo's parents. No child should predecease his parent's. I know the heartbreak of such an event. My condolences also to his siblings - such a loss is incomprehensible especially within these circumstances. He dies bravely. RIP

With all due respect and honor to Officer Crispin, I will put his picture as my FB profile pic for the week. The person arrested for the shooting is getting all of the 'face time' with the media when they should be showing the people who their community, their state, and our country lost in the death of Offcer Arnulo Crispin. Rest easy brother, we've got it from here. Prayers to the Crispin family and the Lakeland PD family.

"Who Cries For The COP "

Who cries for the COP...
Walking his beat.
Down a mean street..
Where violent men hold sway..
Where life is cheap...
And Death doth keep..
His tally day by day..
Who cried for the cop..
When assault is made..
With flashing blade..
And guns that shatter the night..
And scanners sound...
Of "Officer down !"
Tells of his helpless plight...
Who cries for the cop...
When ambulance wail.
Tells a mournful tale...
Bringing tears to a widow's eyes...
Who gives a damn..
When triggers slam...
And a brave policemen dies?
Who cries for the cop...
With bloodstained shield...
As life doth yield...
And his labored heartbeats stop?
Tell me true... I'm asking YOU...
Who cares ?
Who cries for the COP?

ANOTHER CENTURION IS GONE

The day started as usual
another day on the beat.
As the day progressed
It would end as no one
could have guessed.

Another life is taken
But for what reason
A bit of greed
or money for a need

A career is ended,
a life is gone.
A son, a brother
will not come home.

A parent will long to hold
a son’s hand.
A chance to hold that hand
will come again.
In that far away land.

Another of God's great Centurions
has been called home.
