Rally For Law Enforcement to stand in support of Tempe PD
Please join us on March 28th at Tempe City Hall at 4pm as we stand in support of Tempe Police and Officer Joseph Jaen who has come under attack by anti-police activists and groups for doing their job. Office Jaen stopped a suspect who was burglarizing a vehicle and had what appeared to be a 1911 .45 caliber pistol. The suspect then ran from police and was shot and killed. Though the pistol was later discovered to be an airsoft replica one can only imagine what could’ve happened next if it had been real. Since the incident, anti-police protesters have held demonstrations outside Tempe PD as well as taking over and disrupting a Tempe City Council meeting in order to bad mouth and attack law enforcement. We believe that the Tempe PD and Officer Jaen are being unjustly targeted for doing their job and we’re calling on all those who support law enforcement to join us in Tempe to support our cops. Tempe City Hall is located at 31 E. 5th Street. We hope to see all those that back the blue there. Please help us spread the word. Thank you.
We have setup a Facebook event page for those who wish to RSVP. You can find it at https://www.facebook.com/events/622380354864416/

There was also cookies, donuts and water provided to those that attended. Another Back The Badge rally is being planned and details will be posted soon.
Once again Rally For L.E. will be joining with other police supporters from across the Phoenix metro area for another Back The Badge rally to support law enforcement. This time it’ll be held at the American Legion Earl E. Mitchell Post #29 located at 6822 N 57th Drive in Glendale, AZ across from Glendale PD headquarters from 10am – 12pm.
This is the second time we’ve rallied at Glendale PD. We’re also partnering with the Expendables Motorcycle Club of Arizona to put on the event. There will be a motorcycle procession to kick off the event and a Thin Blue Line flag presented to Glendale PD and to the family of a fallen Glendale PD officer Bradley Jones. Glendale PD will also have a SWAT vehicle and gear on display. Aaron Leach will also be there providing music as alwats. The event is free and open to the public.
Police supporters are encouraged to bring Thin Blue Line and American flags as well as signs in support of law enforcement. More will be posted as information becomes available. You can also get up to date information via our Facebook and Twitter pages as well.
We’d like to thank all of you for your support in 2016 and hope you all have a very prosperous, safe and happy New Year. We hope you will join us all again as we rally in support of law enforcement in 2017.
