Depends on the department that wears it. Here is one example: Truth, Justice, Fortitude, Temperance, Prudence, Tolerance, Brotherhood. This varies from department to department in law enforcement. It shows the multi-faceted expectations of the public upon the person it is pinned on.

Added: There are many tales associated with this custom but there is no one "real" definition. Many agencies use stars of various "points" including six-pointed stars as well as five-pointed stars. Each agency has developed a symbolic "meaning" for their particular badge.
