It is the only way to stop corruption. Officers lie, steal, and cheat to save each other. We cannot let the corruption continue. The new Chief should allow the community to tell the police what it's priorities are, not allowing the police to harrass the homeless and bust prostitutes, when the real crime is in the boardrooms, highways, and other places. Murder, rape, and burglary are problems that affect the community, not a jaywalker or a bicyclist without a light on or a homeless man asking for money.
People FEAR the police.
Let's try to turn that around. He alway needs a spot light. I thought Chief Moose did a great job of participating in on the ground organizations trying to make a differnece in the city Understanding of Diversity - The new cheif doesn't need to be a minority, but must continue the tradition and continue to nuture the relationship between the bureau and the minority communities. All citizens should feel protected by our police. We need to work to increase their positive image as members of our communities, we need to bring them back in and teach our children to respect them and teach them to reach out an embrace our children.
