#repost ****************** @salutetheblue ・・・ POLICE CRISIS: Reaching Out For HELP Is Not A Sign of Weakness. Too Many of Our Brothers and Sisters Are Taking Their Own LIFE. We’re Long Overdue For A Solution To Minimize The Impact of Such Tragic Lost. During 2017, A high number of suicides continued to plague the law enforcement community. As of the year’s end, a raw number of 102 self-inflicted deaths have been identified. Many such deaths, currently hidden, remain to be identified for the year but will come to light and be publicized as 2018 progresses and further reports come in. A number of other cases do evade detection because of agencies that conceal them when they occur—an occurrence that is all too frequent. Using past reliable experience, patterns and research, however, we compensate mathematically at the end of the year for those that are deliberately hidden or misreported. This formula is consistent with that used and verified in past years. After using it, we were able to pin down a final number of 140 police suicides in 2017 | #BlessTheFallen #BehindTheBadge #OngoingBattle #HonoringTheFallen #PTSD #TBI #WarriorsHeart #SuicideNoMore #OperationHomeSafe #LEAP2 #ThinBlueLine #BackTheBlue #SaluteTheBlue 🇺🇸⚫️🔵⚫️🇺🇸
