His gripes with the federal “Secure Communi- ties” program are the exact same criticisms I hear from every liberal politician in Massa- chusetts. Sisson, like others elsewhere, talks about breaking up families or creating mistrust among immigrant communities. What opponents here in Austin and in Boston never talk about is that the only time anyone would ever be held under Secure Communities would be those actually arrested, not everyone who is pulled over. We need politicians elected to office across the country who uphold the law and not selectively choose which laws to enforce. Travis County needs a lawman behind the badge. Cops Guilty Until Proven Innocent As a retired police officer who is currently on my annual vacation to Austin, I had some com- ments in reaction to the Austin American Statesman’s editorial (Cop shootings: Austin’s N.Y. state of mind, July 19th). It seems lately that police officers have become targets of those with anti-police agendas. Law en- forcement is under intense scrutiny. However, Members of the St. Joseph Society too often many critics out there presume cops to (Photo by Rosario Scabin, Ross Photography) be guilty until proven innocent.
