	<itunes:summary>If the Safety of your Life, Family, and Property are a priority to you, do yourself a favor and subscribe.

Here is why:

YOU the PUBLIC, entrust my brother and I to wear a belt with a gun, a bullet-resistant vest, and a badge. You ask us to drive around all day in a patrol car with pretty red and blue lights, to hopefully protect you and your family, your pets, your car, and your property from being victimized. Does it work? It is a nice concept, but you tell me. Chances are you have already been a victim of crime.

We came up with a different concept. One to put you in control. One to make you aware. One that will Make your life Code-4! Remember these 2 very important words. Code-4

Code-4 is a Police code that we use on the radio to tell the dispatcher that we have the situation under control, and that no further assistance is necessary.

We often rush to assist other officers in potentially dangerous situations. While responding to the other officers location, we hear the officer advise dispatch that they are Code-4. No further assistance needed because they have the situation under control. I do not notice it anymore after all these years, but when I hear another cop advise Code-4 my brain tells my body itâs OK to relax. I would not call it a sigh of relief exactly, but I definitely get the feeling that - Everything is cool for now - and my sense of urgency disappears until the next call comes in. Mark and I are both experienced street officers. Day in and day out we see senseless tragedy that could have been avoided. Property loss, that could have been avoided. Innocent people being victimized who did not need to be victimized. Criminals bouncing through the criminal justice system, like it was a revolving door.

See the full info on our website - But subscribe to the podcast first......</itunes:summary>
