Today's #BlueFriday segment honoring local law enforcement was special and slightly different. 

We honored a local hero, recognized the struggle that some departments are having recruiting new cops given the media climate promoting an anti-cop sentiment.

Pat Colligan is the President of the NJ Policeman’s Benevolent Association and he joined me in studio at NJ 101.5 this morning to discuss the struggle some departments are having recruiting new members. He thanked us for having the courage and consistency to stand with law enforcement spreading the positive message of the heroic things that cops do every day to keep our communities safe.
