Law enforcement officials from across the country met with President
Trump at the White House on Friday. Members of the Fraternal Order of
Police said the president has taken initiative, giving them the support
law enforcement officials need.Officers said the biggest issue they are concerned with is the increase in violent crimes in big cities. They said they believe district attorneys are not following the rule of law.
“It’s because we have activist DAs in
cities like Houston, Dallas, Philadelphia, Chicago, Baltimore, who are
letting these dirt bags out, who are repeat violent offenders, who are
doing gun crimes. They’re letting them out with sweetheart deals.
They’re getting back out on the streets and they’re victimizing the
hardworking men and women of our community.“
– Officer Joe Gamaldi, National VP of the Fraternal Order of Police
The officials said police officers around the country are doing their
jobs and urged district attorneys to do theirs. They thanked President
Trump for his time and for “having the backs of the brave men and women
of law enforcement.”“We are very proud to have been asked to participate in this important discussion,” the group said in a statement.
