1. Police Protecting Society (The Force that Protects and Saves) By: Jaida Samuels Media 180 Section 008

2. Here we have our honorable policemen. They are known specifically to protect and serve citizens. Their only job is to ensure, that we the people are safe from all dangers.

3. Being that they are entrusted by the president of the United States of America, Barack Obama, the police definitely see protecting citizens as their top priority. The police force is considered as one of the most important forms of security that we have within our nation.

4. And the moment things go wrong in society they are the first ones on site to ensure everyone is out of harms way by any means.

5. The times when it is necessary for police to arrest people, their sole purpose is to hold the criminal in the custody of the courts and get them off of the streets.

6. Although this action is sometimes seen as the police force racial profiling, or wrongfully arresting a person. It is solely done to protect society.

7. The times when people believe this happens, they peacefully rally because they feel as though what the police are doing is wrong. So they protest and voice their opinions.

8. Such as in the recent case, with the shooting of Trayvon Martin. The actions done in this situation, many see as racial profiling and feel as though our beloved justice system will do all they can to correct it.

9. But at the end of it all the police force is doing everything they can to ensure that justice is served, which is their job and main purpose within our country. They work and strive for making America a safer place.
