The role of policing in our culture can be categorized in two broad models; crime fighter or public services role. These two models view policing in different ways as seen by society as a whole. The views of policing at stated by Pollack (2017), in with the crime fighter model focus on the “presumption is that criminals (who are different from the rest of us) are the enemy and police officers are the soldiers in a war on crime” (p.116). This view by police and society helps to formulate the style of policing they utilize leaning more towards force and not viewing all members of society as equal. The public servant view of policing described by Pollack (2017) as the “presumptions are different and include the idea that criminals are not so different from us and, in fact, may be our sons and daughters” (p. 116).
Police officer’s that serve and protect the community are challenged on a daily basis when it comes to using the correct amount of force during an arrest or detention of a person. These officers are critiqued and questioned regularly when they use force, whether it is deadly force or less lethal force. Police officers are put in positions where they have to use the amount of force to control the situation and they do so by following a guideline such as the Force Continuum or other policies and procedures the department has set in place. Regardless of the amount of force an officer uses they are put through extensive training to learn how to handle certain situations.

Sometimes, human beings can become murderers or monsters to each other when driven by their inner feelings. In the play "The Monsters Are Due on Maple Street," a normal neighborhood in the USA, we can see how suspicion among the residents leads to cruelty toward one another. It starts with a resident's car starting up without him there, and suspicion rises to the point where people start yelling, throwing things, and even shooting. Through suspicion, blame, and violence, we can see how human beings can act irrationally and self-destruct when they are driven by fear or panic.
One could argue that public law enforcement agencies should be fully replaced in the matter of air and rail. Public law enforcement have a lot to do with the current risk/threat we are facing. They should leave private sectors in dealing with providing security for air and rail. Most air and rail system does not require the presence of public law enforcement officer presence, especially the way they are looked at in public eyes. Air and road system is to provide services for the public in which the public is comfortable while service is provided to them.
Good evening Daniel, good response. Private security and public policing are similar as well as different in many ways. Base on knowledge and training they both provide their officers skills they need to keep the public safe. When it comes down to the administrative aspect, they both are different. Like you stated in your response, private security are hired by private businesses/organization.
Another form of unethical police abuse is spying, also known as information gathering. Spying is a challenging abuse tactic to monitor or fix because it is a secret activity which makes those who participate in it all the more unethical. The victim does not know it 's happening, and it is goes unwitnessed. One way to try and stop spying or extreme information gathering is to limit the information police have access to. All information that is allowed to be collected may only be done so if that person is a reasonable suspect of having committed a crime, and the information must be relevant to that crime.

The topic for this research proposal project is on community policing, and the factors that are involved in determining if relationships between law enforcement and citizens in these neighborhoods are strained. In order to be successful, community policing must be built on trust, as both civilians and law enforcement must work hand in hand to protect their communities. If there is a lack of trust, then these programs becomes broken, and can therefore lead to other violence and criminal acts. This research proposal project will focus on minority based communities and citizens, where the majority of the citizens are either African American or Hispanic.

LICEING THE 21ST CENTURY The police are the public and the public are the police - Robert peel When we talk about the criminal justice system the public at large plays a very important role right from the prevention to reporting to the investigation of the case.

The word police, inspires confidence inspires a sense of truse, security, commitment, and public service.
Police deviance is something that isn’t particularly talked about in the open. The reactions to certain actions by the police are either kept under wraps or blown up in the media to a dramatic extent. The purpose of this paper is to focus on the negative side of police deviance and the repercussions that follow. This will allow some light to be shown on the actions of officers that don’t follow the rules that they set out to uphold. If the peacekeepers aren’t keeping the peace, then the reasoning for having a position of power is null.
