It’s the police who keep Americans from turning into savages, particularly in large cities. A society without police would turn into a primal and deadly environment. Police are really the vanguards of orderly society. In many ways, they are the heroes. That there are a small number of corrupt and/or unnecessarily vicious cops changes none of that.

I am a voracious reader and also enjoy writing. I often have a very different point of view than the popular one. I do see value in debate, and thought it might add to the public debate on controversial issues if I were to express my contrarian opinions. I also started keeping my poems recently (I've written little pieces my whole adult life but never kept any); and I've been a photographer now for over 25 years. So I will be adding an occasional poem and hopefully interesting photograph to the blog along the way, just to spice things up. View all posts by Henry Barnard
