pedestrians or people in cars, search them, run their names to see if any warrants came up, ask them to come in for questioning, or make an arrest at least once a day...” (Goffman, pg. 343). This is more similarly related to a stop and frisk method of policing, deeming “reasonable suspicion” as grounds to search someone. 2) The harm to families and communities I believe this may bring, is a great lack of trust in local law enforcement
This study is aimed to investigate zero tolerance policing and the implementation of its policies into society. By focusing on the pros and cons of this type of policing it will answer the overall question on whether or not zero tolerance policing is efficient and effective within society. The theories behind zero tolerance policing can provide specific reasons for why or why not policing needs more or less discretion when performing certain functions. There are certain legal aspects that back up
communities. As such, it becomes ever more vital to reach out to these communities through the use of community policing to ensure that all are properly supported and protected. In the current environment, terrorism prevention frequently emerges in the training-regiment
Oakland boys, finally, I too have suffered from over/under policing. Certain negative behaviors in my elementary were overlooked, such as bullying, despite the zero-tolerance policy. Most teachers would ignore the zero-tolerance policy and choose not to police my bully's bad behavior. When it came to pushing me down stairs, calling me fat and ugly, or rubbing my possessions into the dirt to ruin them, my teachers were lackluster in their policing.

Cops could use for showing their presence among the people where there is no need for them. The community does not know what is going on and the cops are keeping the people in the dark that cerate distrust among everyone. Now you have resentment among both police and the local people.

Charlie Beck said Thursday he's confident a similar police beating couldn't happen again. The Los Angeles Police Department has made sweeping reforms in its use of force and handling of complaints, is under more civilian oversight, and community-based policing has eased tensions in crime-plagued communities, Beck said. In addition, the ubiquitous cell phone means officers are aware they may be taped at any time, Beck asserted. "Inarguably, we are a much better department," he said during a routine meeting
the campus on Thursday to talk with the criminal justice class about policing. Chief Kelly has been serving for forty-three years between police forces in the states of Ohio and Pennsylvania - and has been a police chief for thirty-three years. With his years of experience, Chief Kelly talked about primarily three main ideas: Problem-Solving, Community- Oriented Policing and Abington’s Approach to Policing.
