Stood on the Indepence Street bridge over the President George Bush Tollway today and watched the funeral procession for the first of the officers being laid to rest. Was sobering to see the outpouring of support and solidarity on display. Citizens, FD and PD alike. Hundreds of police vehicles from all over this state of ours, as well as at least a half a dozen other states were a part of the procession.
This was in stark contrast to the divisive rhetoric spewed forth by Obama at the memorial service yesterday. Although the media prefers to depict a nation on the brink of self-destruction and continually focuses on the evil. I prefer to believe that good will prevail and witnessed just that in the face of tragedy today.
