Citizen Writers Fighting Censorship by Helping Americans Understand Issues Affecting the Republic.
This article is the third in a series about policing and public safety policy. Today, we’ll talk about “Broken Windows Policing.” Former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani is widely and properly credited with cleaning up the mess his predecessor, David Dinkins left him. Giuliani in turn, credits Broken Windows Policing for his success. The …
Some time back, I remember listening to the David Webb Show** and he had on a retired NYPD Police Captain. His guest was pretty brutal in his assessment of the then Mayor of Gotham. His view was pretty close to mine, although not quite as salty. His words did however, provide the start point for …
We have a generation of people who don’t think they are accountable for their actions, especially dealing with police. Some of this is comical, some criminal. Both have to be stopped.
Larry Krasner, Philadelphia’s George Soros-sponsored, criminal-loving and police-hating District Attorney, recently renominated for a third term, as the city’s chief prosecutor, is just spittle-flecking angry that he cannot keep a former Philadelphia Police Officer in jail any longer, and, of course, the denizens at The Philadelphia Inquirer have been outraged all along. Columnist Helan Ubiñas …
American Law Enforcement Officers are a special breed. Our secular one-size-fits-all government cannot just take any person, and by subjecting him or her to extensive and sensitive training, create a LEO.
It is, of course, no surprise that most of the writers at The Philadelphia Inquirer hate the police. Columnist Helen Ubiñas, tweeted her great disappointment that former Philadelphia Police Officer Ryan Pownell should be reinstated, with back pay and restored seniority.
The body worn cameras show the cops were justified in this shooting. Not that the facts matter to leftist mantra about killer cops.
Qualified Immunity for law enforcement officers applies currently if the officer acting commits an act not known to be a violation at the time it was committed.
Police must often be rough with the people in their patrol areas, which is why the cop (and his family) cannot live there.
We must learn from the experiences and actions of others to insure we don’t make critical, even life threatening mistakes.

If you want to wear a badge, decide if you are ready to go into harm’s way before you take the oath.
These cops conducted a felony stop and are now told they will have to defend themselves in civil court.
The Soros funded New Orleans district attorney was not concerned about robbery. Now he is
Too many law-enforcement officers, FBI agents included, have demonstrated that they are no longer agents of the Constitution. We need law enforcement to maintain order. But when their oath becomes irrelevant, “order” becomes tyranny.
America is NOT systemically racist, although there are racist pockets still in our society. You don’t throw out an entire apple because it has a spot. You cut out the spot. The rest is still good.
“No-Knock” are overly dangerous and often un-justifiably in their use. As a rule I do not favor “No-Knock” warrants, where you kick the door and try to take control of the scene. Calling them dangerous is being generous. Not just for the cops, but the people in the building you’re breaking into. A point to …
Law enforcement’s inability to protect us from the thug on the street is not a response-time problem. It is a natural and necessary outcome of our governing philosophy.
Between the micromanagement, the 20/20 hindsight judgements and the “help,” from the politicians, people don’t want to be cops anymore. In an earlier post on AFNN I made the point that Body Worn Cameras (BWC) have, for the most part, been a positive for policing. More times than not, when an alleged infraction occurs, it …
