Protecting public safety is essential to the proper working and prosperity of our communities.
We support elected leaders in their efforts to promote public safety but caution against the loss of liberty that comes with micro-management. Government governs best when it governs least.
We support our law enforcement officers. We acknowledge that some changes must be made and police officers who cross the line should and must be held accountable. Having said that, we are ever thankful for their continued work in deterring crime, arresting and prosecuting criminals while respecting the liberty of all. Those are among the bedrock principals of good governance.
