Officer Hoy Analysis

Michael Dowd, dubbed the name “Dirtiest Cop in New York City”, prospered enough than any US President’s annual salary, calculating by the amount of money he stole in robberies he and his partner, Kenny Eurell, planned in their patrol car to the eight grand a week they were paid from a drug gang leader. He and his fellow partners-in-crime would use police tactics to rob dealers. Certainly, Dowd was not only intelligent in his mischievous ways, but he had balls and didn’t rat out on his partners, which made him fearless of the consequences that might follow. He may be nervous at times, but was never feared of being caught. He was determined, demanding, obnoxious, greedy individual, and would go after anyone that threatened him and owed him money.

Gilmartin begins by describing the typical rookie officer. Most are energetic, idealistic, enthusiastic and very driven. Quickly this enthusiasm can change from one of positivity to one that is very cynical and emotionally charged. These behaviors and thoughts over time if not corrected become exacerbated leading to noticeable mental and physical changes.

Patsy and Joby’s settinga are alike in many ways. One of those ways is the fact that there is lots of conflict going on in each story. One of those conflicts is in Patsy’s story and it’s the racism. Text from page 107 states the white doctor being racist to the black women who was once a slave. Page 107 states, “…said the doctor, ‘I don’t see what you people want to come up here for anyhow. Why don’t you just stay down South where you belong? You come up here and you’re just a burden and a trouble to they city.” Text from page 113 states the fact that the conflict in Joby’s story is the war. Page 113 states, “This story is about a Civil War drummer boy.”

As a police officer I need to pay close attention to everything that is going on around me. I also need to listen to everything said around me. Getting too comfortable and not paying attention to detail can cost us our jobs and our lives or worse someone else’s life. Attention to detail in law enforcement is important because we must ensure the right person is arrested and prosecuted for the offenses they have committed; any time you have the ability to take someone’s freedom away you need to come correct. I owe this to the community to ensure their safety and well-being.

Discussing with Captain Carpenter, we talked about the qualities that a police officer would need to have:

-Captain Hill,as an mentor, had a huge impact on the author Wes because now he thinks about who he wants to becomes. Captain Hill also helped the author Wes to determine his goal of career. Furthermore, Mayor Schmoke is instructed the author Wes the real meaning of life. Family and friends gave the author Wes healthy guidance.

When the author Wes punch Nikki and his mom yell in range to go to his room. However, the other Wes' older brother,Tony, as a role model, gave him violent advice, " Rule number 1: If someone disrespect you, you send a message so fierce that they won't have the chance to do it again" (33).

When you associate words like shameless with everyday life you don’t think of it being a television show, one may think of shameless as a negative adjective used to describe a person showing a lack of shame, but it's a comedy/drama television show that really digs deep into real life scenarios and shows how a true dysfunctional family lives in the “hood” of Chicago.

The second discussion board posting I chose to respond to is by Hyesoo Byun, and he posted it under, “DB 3: Red Jacket.” He posted it on October 4th, 2016 in the third discussion board posting. I agree with his posting and ideas like how the Great Spirit is their ultimate leader; the Great Spirit creates and gives everything to the Indians that they need.

From the Great Spirit there were nature like the sun and the moon and creation like animals and plants for food and clothings” (Byun). The Great Spirit did a lot for them, so Hyesoo is correct.
