Per request and really against my will the last post I made about Tommy and last night was taken down. I have had time to reassess the situation and although I am completely scared and angry I am still going to stick to my original point. Some of us are afraid to speak up...to speak out. To take on such a vast and heated situation and make a stand. I am not known for hiding my feelings. I was raised to speak out and be a voice for the voiceless. I am very ANGRY. I am very FRUSTRATED. I am so SCARED!!! I am CRYING my eyes out.....First of all my husband had NOTHING to do with the events that happened in MO or NY. He is an amazing SGT. with the Atlanta Police Department. He has been on over 12 years and is well respected. Without mentioning names and addresses and other particulars I want you all to know that last night Tommy Uhlis encountered some extremely violent and venomous black men. They hurled insults at him, they made threats, and they wanted him to say or do something negative so they could make a case out of him. Instead of creating a nightmare of a situation Tommy did not give into their bait and held himself to a higher standard. Put it this way, I am lucky he came home. You see, we can say Tommy did nothing to deserve this. But the truth is ANYONE in a police uniform is Darren Wilson. They have no idea he has a family at home. This is the world we live in. He goes rushing in when everyone else goes running out. He has a massive target on his back. I am terrified by these so called, peaceful protesters who will do anything for street cred including inciting riots and spitting, pushing, and mocking the police so they can get arrested. I am scared for my children who cry for their Dad already...I am sickened that people have so much hate for people who wear the badge. I am tired of my anxiety being through the roof everytime my doorbell rings or I get a phone call. Yes, they make pills for that (lol). But I guess my point is that I am usually never frightened by him working in Atlanta. And right now I cannot even sleep. As a wife or girlfriend or a mom can you even imagine this going on? They keep chanting, NO JUSTICE NO PEACE! and there really is No justice for these people who ruin our neighborhoods or cops who are told just to take it so it will go away. There is no peace right now...for our family and millions of others who are scared too while either wearing the badge or standing behind it. Atlanta City Mayor welcomed the protesters and has been extremely non supportive of this Police force and I have been there to see this with my own two eyes. In fact in his speech to the media on the issue of Ferguson he stated that Michael Brown did not get the justice he deserved. He called for a complete investigation by the US Justice Department. APD is on 12 hour shifts with no days off.That is not justice or peace. Three years ago I got Citizen of the Year award from the city of Atlanta for connecting and peacefully uniting the community through volunteerism and being a lesion. I so wish I could be of help in this situation but I cannot be because I am too pissed off and scared. So to summarize I am praying for a safe return tonight for Tommy and everyone else who is out there with the badge. My heart is with your heart. And if you can thinking about us tonight please send some good vibes our way.....
