Thank You To All Brenham Officers,Surrounding Police Officers for helping but sad to find that another Police Officer has been hurt. These people need to be taught to not disrespect Police Officers Thank You All For Protecting Us Especially During Memorial Day.
They need to stay off the streets. People acting like they are thugs, I heard they are wanting and looking for more people to fight. You’re not thugs. You’re uneducated people with nothing to lose so you cause trouble. Grow up, get a job and stop causing so much stupid trouble.
Maybe the National Guard should have been called too. A volunteer fire dept. with a couple of hose crews and good aim and water could have hosed down hostilities before they started. Must have been 15 plus emergency vehicles on the scene and the injuries happened after they arrived. Appears more training is in order. Now there is more cha Ching for the cash register court house.
