Police-plank-Ravenstahl

==Statements to the P-G in March 4, 2007 == 
===How would you alter law enforcement to improve police-community relations?===
Ravenstahl: "How do we police now? Are there better ways that we can do it? Be more active in the community. Be more efficient in terms of where the zones are, and how we're currently deployed. Those are all discussions we're going to continue to have.
"I just think having a chief like Chief [Nate] Harper that works with the people, in contrast to Chief [Robert W.] McNeilly in the past, who was kind of a dictator, so to speak, I think is the first step. I think in four months, since Chief Harper has been the chief, you've seen that. You've seen him reach out. You've seen him participate in community meetings, reach out to faith-based organizations and groups in the African-American community, for example, that have felt neglected, that have felt their voices haven't been heard."
