Police Officers

by Juan from Tampico, Tamaulipas in Mexico

A hero is someone who helps people and wants people to be happy for what they have. In this case, I choose the police officers as my heroes because they help when you are in need and they take care of other people. The police officer uses his or her skills to catch people who break the law. His or her actions are good for humanity. If the world would not have any police officers, the world would be in chaos.


Without police officers, thieves and corrupters would create chaos. Imagine, too, the traffic, with no one to help move the cars around cities.

Being a police officer is a though work. They do serious work, and they don't sleep all day or eat coffee and doughnuts. They have to risk their lives every day.

Imagine their families, and how much they must worry about something happening to their loved one. A police officer is a hero, because he or she can protect the innocent form danger and other things can endanger the lives of people.

There are many types of police officers:

• Traffic Police - This kind of police helps move the traffic.

• Road Police - Help cars in the road keep their speed and avoid the cars accidents.

• Sheriffs - Maintain the order in small towns.

• Police Officers - Are the common type of police that you see every day that help enforce the law.

• Detectives - Make investigations of any kind.

• Agents– like F.B.I and S.W.A.T. • Guard Coast – Polices the oceans and boats.

We have to thank all kinds of police because they are who protect us from any danger or situation that could hurt us.
