Friday, 9/18/20 (copy 04)

Greetings,

Being a car enthusiast almost always means knowing at least one cop.

Sometimes for driving a bit too enthusiastically. ;0)  But more often through chatting with a friendly officer at a car meet or in your neighborhood.

Any civilized society needs and relies on police officers.  So, the movement to defund the police is utter lunacy and dangerous.

Highlighting that danger is the recent 

ambush

on two LA County Sheriff's deputies.  Please join me in keeping them in your thoughts and prayers. 

And, if you are able,

here's the

GoFundMe

page accepting donations benefiting those deputies. 

Kindly,

-T
