Re: Mind's Eye Re: Cops and robbers

If past history is any record they probably already in place..  but political greed has been working at handcuffing federal  law enforcement. . Mainly to hide there crimes.. they didn't lije the Nixon Affair..

The news here last week in Detroit (and demonstrations afterward) was that an 18 year old boy was shot and killed by a police officer. Sounds bad. It was a federal officer serving a warrant. Still bad. The warrant was two years old (took them two years to find him.) His father was there also. Sounds inept. The boy had a record of violent crime and drug trafficking. the warrant was for drugs. The father had a long record and was involved. They were in a crack house not a family home. The boy came at an officer with a hammer before he was shot. The plot thickens.

There were many stories surrounding this event, most had a fraction of the facts needed for a clear picture of what happened and many were steeped in inaccuracy. We are at a turning point here in how we handle crime on every level. I hold the press responsible - even though they are an industry in crisis because of a changing business model with paper news and TV news becoming dinosaurs. Can they vet the stories without proper funding? I think if they can't, they should shut down. they have a sacred trust they are not meeting, turning instead to sensationalism and melodrama to get ratings and advertisers.

Then there is the problem of the protest for hire, making millions for some paid to stir up national issues, lately surrounded by race. When did this start? Who needs the distraction?

Then there is the problem of the growing transparency in law enforcement that technology creates. After centuries of brute force and corruption, the rapid change necessary will not always occur and the result will be ugly.

Then there is the new problem of organized street gangs jumping on riots everywhere to cash in, a new revenue stream. This is getting interesting, and not in a good way. My guess is there is a federal gang task force on the horizon modeled after Elliot Ness (because we don't have any current models).

That leaves the biggest problem that I see, all of the people caught up in it, losing their businesses to fire and looting, their lives to injury and trauma. Left like my friends, whose lives were never the same after 1967. Baltimore may go the way of Detroit after this. Fear creates population flight after that kind of horror.

Of course the evidence is going to bend toward the prosecution. That is the evidence they want to finf to convict.. they are trying to find thr perps ..  unfortunately over zealous narrow minded cops and the legal system jump to conclusions.
After mob action you wonder about whether in a war zone.. I remember the riots of the 60's.  And the devestation is very rule..  how do you stop gang rule? Heavy handed law enforcement.. that is not the solution either.. neither is mob rule.. the solution is some where but neither of those solutions are valid..

Molly is right. Society needs to find the real problem there is a very valid way and that is follow the money.  . It is surprisingly the results when light is shined in areas where people don't want their activities know.. often hiding behind a false veil of morality.

Public morality is a totally different topic. . Looking at it ...  hmm it applies  only to the other guy..  (I will leave off the snide remark as it is not a valid contribution )

Am really glad feeling better Neil and Molly.  Have been there a while back.. did not like the feeling of death warmed over..

Thanks for chiming in, Neil. Good to know you can. You just gotta feel better soon. It has been much too long.

I'm still too poorly to focus.  Facil's solution is still a de facto one for some.  People don't call cops because they don't help and often make things worse.  You call the local fixers.  Our justice systems don't hang the right people either, with even forensic evidence found to be 85% bent to the prosecution.  Cops visit 13 year old kids who have been raped and do nothing (I had to find other crimes to hang on perpetrators).  I see Tony's point and agree it despite these reservations.

Deep in this we are being had by "experts".  and failed economics - not much use in time if your car is set on fire.  I expect some kind of work to rule from cops asking why they should put themselves at risk for such an ungrateful public, though would like to see us all do public order policing as a civic duty.

The solution is simple.  Two emergency numbers for people to call .  One number is for the police to come and resolve the situation the other number is to contact an angry mob.  The police might make mistakes and the court system might not be quick enough in terms of justice.  The mob on the other hand would be swift justice but they may not hang the right person.  Let the people decide.
