Tu Quoque Fallacy Of Police Man

Tiller Russell’s enthralling film “The Seven Five” is shameful yet engaging that it gives a valuable lesson. The documentary focuses on the occurrences in the 75th precinct of East New York during the dark days of the 1980s and the true-crime deeds of Michael Dowd, a corrupt officer, through interviews with Dowd himself, investigators, Dowd’s partners, and drug dealers. Joined the New York Police Department in 1982 when he was 20 years old, Michael Dowd became a patrol officer for 10 years and 5 months, and within that decade, he confessed into using his authority to commit crimes and acts of corruption in violation of his sworn duty to uphold the law.

The law gives police officers power to use deadly force when they feel physically endangered, but that power doesn’t extend to opening fire at fleeing individuals. When is it necessary or proper for an officer to shoot at a fleeing suspect? This question was posed after a police shooting in South Carolina. There was video recorded by a bystander that shows a black man being shot in the back and killed as he runs away. According to A seminal 1985 Supreme Court case, Tennessee vs. Garner, “The police may not shoot at a fleeing person unless the officer reasonably believes that the individual poses a significant physical danger to the officer or others in the community.” So by that precedent it is only justifiable to shoot a fleeing suspect if they meet that criteria. No two situations are identical neither are any two officers, but law enforcement officers should use only the amount of force necessary to dissolve the situation in order make the arrest. Force should only be applied to protect officer or others from harm. The levels of force police use include basic verbal and physical restraint, less-lethal force, and lethal force application of each depends on the situation. KRS 503.090 is the use of physical force in law enforcement.

No one can deny the thrill of suspense. A man, being chased, turns into a dark alley only to find the end of the page. So the reader turns to the next page, to find out what happens to the protagonist and satisfy their desire of suspense. The short story, “August Heat,” by W. F. Harvey, creates suspense through the use of several techniques, these being misinformation, foreshadowing, and plot twists. It should be clarified that misinformation in this sense does not mean that the author lies to the reader, or tells them something irrelevant to the plot, but rather leads the reader to come to their own conclusions about the story, so that when the truth is revealed they are all the more surprised.

The Frontline documentary, Policing the police, makes the argument that there are many problems with police departments across the United States and uses his correspondence with the Newark, New Jersey Police Department to make that point.

Paige, here are a few of the options I found. Going through your Pinterest, I see that your style is girly with a slight edge.

The term paper attempts to examine the problem of Police Corruption. Police force is the only body in the society who are given authority to use the force towards citizens, any malpractice in the police

Undeniably, religion proves itself to be one of the most dominating forces that continues to enact long lasting impacts on contemporary societies; religion possesses the means to either acts as a source of unity or division in communities. In her dystopian novel, “The Handmaid’s Tale,” Margaret Atwood engenders the frequent usage of theological references- names of characters, institutions and other uses of language allude to various religious figures and ideas. Atwood’s constant attention to the power of scriptural imagery and symbolism is used not only to provide a familiar reference point for the reader, but to critique a dogmatic society in which there is little to no separation between church and state, consequently disregarding any notions

Through 50 interviews, Becker researched how marijuana users are labelled as deviant, even though their motive is simply pleasure. The labels others attach make the activity deviant, which leads to alienation and a deviant career. Whether it is labelled as deviant or not depends on each society, in the UK it is illegal, whereas in Spain it is not. Police brutality, also shows how crime is socially constructed and how people’s labels, even within the same society, can vary. For example, black people make around 4% of the UK population, but 12.70% of those who are tasered by the police. Police may label black youth as criminal, whereas movements like Black Lives Matter may label the police as criminal, and those who are targeted as innocent.

I imagine the small town Rixton of 16,000 citizens experience with law enforcement is probably inconvenience and inconsistent. For example, one month the citizen might experience an officer being friendly and respectful versus the next month the citizen feels as though they been victimized or violated. Conversely, I think most police departments experience the inconsistency in their police department because a few percentages officers have their own way of policing. However, in the town of Rixton, a population of 16,000, that inconsistency may seem greater because 6 out of 36 officers are doing their own thing, which makes the percentage 17%, close to 20%. Nonetheless, Rixton population is similar to Ferguson MO, where the protest

Hey, Melinda did you know “Deception can occur in any or all three stages of the detecting process during the investigation, interrogation, and court testimony” (Ciske, 2009). Criminals have every reason to expect that law enforcement officers are going to use deception against them, just as well as they lie to escape accusation. The law enforcement officers in this situation must take into account what sorts of methods are permissible and what the costs are. However, law enforcement officers have to take into account a confession is a substantial piece of evidence that can be presented in court. If the police have to lie to get a confession, it’s still up to the judge to determine if the suspect confession seems voluntary. People may disagree with police tactics during interrogation; however, police are not trained psychologist their deception during interrogating of a suspect has solved numerous of crimes. Therefore, law enforcement interrogations are videotaped inside the interrogation room to create an objective record of police questioning to which all interested and potentially interested parties may appeal, suspects, prosecutors, defense attorneys, and juries. (Wakefield & Underwager, 2014)

Police subculture undermines ethics and has a constant influence on officers’ decision-making process, which ultimately leads to misconduct. Police, like most professions, have a secretive yet unique type subculture because the lifestyles of its members are significantly different. Law enforcement officers tend to befriend other officers or people with similar roles within the criminal justice system. Many times, friendships extend to firefighters and other civil service personnel to include military members.

This paper will describe police power and police authority. I will also talk about police discretion as for as whom gets locked up and who is allowed to go free. This paper will discuss the different use of police force. In this paper I will also talk about police attitude, police misconduct, and physical abuse among police officers.

In recent years, society has heard cases of police brutality at an increasingly shocking rate, thus creating a sense of distrust among communities towards police officers and other authority figures. As the first line of defense against crimes such as home invasions or crimes against persons, police officers are expected to be an ally towards victims; however, it seems that society is now viewing officers as the perpetrators of crimes as opposed to the protectors. This has already posed an issue because community members are choosing not to seek police help when needed, and when they do decide to seek help, forgoing police assistance results in being uncertain of where else to go.

Police officers are given a lot of power because it is needed to help protect citizens and the community. However, police often abuse their power by the over use of force, corruption, sexual misconduct, bias based policing, and failure to maintain police ethics. (Peak, 2011)

In today's society the police, play may roles. They are the peacekeepers, law enforcement and many other jobs. However, recently they have become the subject of a very heated and large debate. Many believe that the police should give up their brute type tactics for a more civilized and humanized approach, while others feel that the police should crack down on the most insignificant of offences to type and disparage crimes that are more serious. In this paper, we will be analyzing both sides of this issue, from the look of the police administration to the public's view of it. When we mention today's police force we will be using the New York City police force as are basis of comparison, because they seem to
