The Veterans need to be offered Jobs in the Local Law Enforcement.

People have lost respect for Law Enforcement and are making a mockery of our Laws. Taking Veterans into this department would bring back the respect and Discipline that has been lost over the years. this would Help to take Veterans off the streets and give them back their self esteem as well as building the Police Force with recruits to up hold the Law.
