    “As police officers we have to be assertive, yet, not aggressive. You have to know your job, if you know your job, then you would not have to quake or cower when some says ‘well I am going to call my lawyer’, often times when they tell me ‘I’m going to call my lawyer’ I say well, you can call ten, because I know that I am on the right footing, and I know regardless to who you call, it’s not going to change anything,” John said.


    He also called on officers of the RSVGPF to be respect to the public, reminding them that they are the ones that are responsible for their salaries.


    “You also have to be respectful to persons. The citizens, they are paying you, and you have to, at all times, deliver a professional product to the public,” he stated.
