POLICE OFFICERS ARE SWORN TO UPHOLD THE LAW

I read with irritation a letter from Stephen Lawrence from Garden Grove,
Calif. (Aug. 24).

He implies that all police officers are "tough guy," aggressive individuals
who love their jobs, and "will tell you" so. What police officer does he
know? A Garden Grove cop? I personally have met and known many police
officers from all over the nation, but primarily in Hawaii at the retail
store where I work.

I have asked them personally how they feel about Green Harvest and busting
people for marijuana. Every answer is virtually the same. The last thing
they like to do is bust people for using ganja, who are essentially
nonviolent, when there are more violent drugs being used such as crack,
speed and meth. To them, though, the law is the law and they are sworn to
uphold it.
