Pledge for law enforcement officers=A MESSAGE TO LAW ENFORCEMENT To Stop Fascism

I support the cause to have a nonviolent code of conduct for the police.  During the rise of Fascist leadership the leaders are only as strong as those who follow their orders.  A strict police code of conduct must be adhered to; this is why this pledge was formulated.  As a person of sound mind, I recognize the need for a pledge for police conduct to protect and defend human rights laws in my community and neutralize fascism. 

With this pledge it will spread to all from local to Federal police departments to stop Fascism.
