Publisher Description: Police and citizen relations, in some areas of a community, are at rock bottom. Emotion and closed mindedness rule and the belief systems have been subjugated to follow specific mantras designed to cause disharmony and disorder. Blaming police or residents accomplishes nothing and exacerbates the situation. Random and unplanned change may induce a pathway fraught with potholes, boulders, and blind turns, admitting few and dissuading most who might wish to find improvement. Given the futility of this approach, save those who would promote a narrow agenda for its sake, we need to chuck the noise and resume sustainable problem solving. |
