My neighbor is a patriotic sort, always displaying both the U.S. and Arizona flags. This week, however, I noticed he had added a third flag, very much like Old Glory but all in blue. I finally had a chance to ask him about it and, remembering that he had retired from law enforcement, was not surprised when he said it was to let every one know that "Blue Lives Matter (Too)".This really hit home at the time as did the deaths of two dedicated police officers just a couple of hours away in Palm Springs. I'm afraid we often forget the "men in blue" who keep us safe. I'm spreading the word now in our senior community what my friend's new flag stands for.
