From FoxNews.com….
President Biden is marking Police Week with a statement that includes language about the “deep sense of distrust” toward cops by Black and brown Americans and the “trauma” caused by deaths in police custody — a statement described as “beyond disappointing” by one police group.
Biden’s proclamation marking both Police Week and Peace Officers Memorial Day, begins by praising law enforcement for their wide range of duties in securing public safety.
Every day, we ask a great deal of those who serve in our nation’s law enforcement agencies. As we recognize Peace Officers Memorial Day and Police Week, my Administration is committed to doing everything we can to support the men and women who serve. https://t.co/nxyjKAso4g

“Every morning, our Nation’s law enforcement officers pin on a badge and go to work, not knowing what the day will bring, and hoping to come home safely,” the president says, before noting the impact of COVID-19 on the men and women in blue.
