National Police Week is upon us and recognizes those law enforcement officers who have lost their lives in the line of duty for the safety and protection of others. It’s held in Washington D.C.each year, and includes a moving ceremony and vigil at the Police Officer’s Memorial. I have not been to the ceremony but have visited the memorial each time I have been in our capital to find the names of the many officers I knew whose funerals I have attended. Like visiting the Vietnam Memorial I have been moved to silence to see the names of so many officers who lost their lives throughout the years.

Here’s a question for you. What is Homeland Security? Is it what we used to call national security? Is it public safety? Is it a massive sinkhole where taxpayer money gets dumped to be lavished on former government employees through no-bid, cost-plus contracts? If you have no idea what “homeland security” is, or what DHS does you’re not alone. No one knows. Not even the folks at DHS.

Dog the bounty hunter and Mrs. Dog recently sat down for a televised interview to discuss Dog’s new hustle where he “trains” other bail bondsmen and, according to Dog, police officers as well, in the fine art of…well…whatever it is that Dog does.
