Rough Draft 1
Wherever there is good there is also bad in the world and when there is bad then there has to be someone to help stop the bad from happening. If there is not someone to stop the bad from happening in a place or region then there is a bunch of chaos and things are torn to shred and close to nobody is safe. When there are laws in place of certain kinds then there has to be someone to go out and get those who break the laws and help keep the laws in place and enforce them. Well those people who keep laws in place and enforce them are police officers and law enforcement.
There are many different versions when it comes to law enforcement but they all do the same thing when it all comes down to it at the end of the day, all of them have one job and that is to protect the citizens and enforce laws. When it comes to security guards to police officers and even to the top of them all which are the fbi and fbi agents, at the end of the day they all have one job and that is to get those who do crimes and to help prevent those who want to do crimes from doing crimes. Their job and goal at the end of the day is to help make the nation a better place to be for other citizens to live their lives. They are there to help the everyday day to day is safer as a whole and things run smoothly. The higher one is when it comes to their position in law enforcement the more power they have and the more gateway they have to things. The highest that one could be is a fbi agent and the lowest is a security guard. The higher one is in ranks the more respect one would receive. Now when it comes to things happening to any levels of law enforcement the same thing happens.
Now when it comes to law enforcement and police officers, they are humans too and all humans make mistakes and with mistakes they are all always avoidable with the right things set in place. There are some changes that should be made when it comes to police and law enforcement when it comes to them. There should be changes to training and the perspective and the way we treat law enforcement. It can be argued that what is in place is already good and in shape and nothing needs to or has to change about what is in place.
Authority and police brutality over minorities and African Americans has gotten worse and worse over the years. When one has a badge they are protected by the government and that means everything that does falls back onto the government either good or bad. But most of the things that have fallen back on the government that have caught the attention of national news have been bad and brutal over the past Four to five decades. It is dating back all the way from the civil rights time but we’re going to skip past that until after that when everyone had equal rights and no segregation and there was still authority brutality. The first encounter that really caught the national news was the beating of Rodney King.
Now this was the only case that authorities really got punished in but wasn’t the last of authority brutality. As father in time we go the more we see authority brutality and the more that the authorities get away with it. As seen multiple times at Traffic stops when pulling someone over or just encountering one, authorities get to racially profiling fast and as a result of that, they end up shooting and killing unarmed citizens or choking one out to where they can’t breathe or beating them to a point to where they can’t breathe.
Training and the way that authorities approach a subject should be changed as a whole because the one that has been put in place isn’t working and is causing backfires to authorities to where the citizens do not even trust or feel safe towards authorities and feel as if the authorities and police are their enemies. Also traffic cops should just be allowed to carry tasers when pulling someone over and not guns as if they are at a threat then they can just tase the individual to stop the confrontation instead of killing an innocent citizen. If the training and the way that authorities approach a citizen is changed then police and authority brutality will go down which will cause less backlash on the government and the people can trust their authorities put in place.
The rules that are set in place for police officers are there to keep them safe so there is no need for other reasons or excuses as it all has been heard, and most of everything that one could think of has already happened or one could expect. But what is not in set to help police and law enforcement officers is what is in set to help those that is going through stress due to the job or to help the officers that are traumatized due to the job. If the chief or person in charge is seeing that an officer off a little bit or that something is wrong with them the most that might be offered to that officer is time off and it has an equal chance of the officer get either paid time off or non paid time off. If it is suggested that the certain officer should take unpaid time off but they do not have the financial stability to take time off then they can not. So that officer that is stressed and traumatized due to the job and is still on the clock which not only puts their safety in jeopardy but it also puts everyone else who comes across that person in jeopardy too. That is no good and leads to nothing but more problems.
There should be better programs and benefits that come with being an officer of some kind of law enforcement. Paid time off and mandatory therapy in some cases depending on the level of mentality of one. In big police departments like the Los Angeles and the Miami police department they have such but not ones in the “ not so big cities”. When it comes to the FBI they only have therapy in Washington D.C. There should be one in every city just like the major ones.
When one becomes to be a person who becomes a police officer or an FBI agent they are supposed to be the ones who help enforce laws and authority around the nation. Their job is to help keep peace and authority and to make sure that things run smoothly throughout the nation and to help stop crime and to be a positive to criminals who think about committing a crime. But when it comes to law enforcement themselves they are treated and looked at as if they are superior to citizens and those who are not in law enforcement. With that being said they get away with things that the regular person wouldn’t get away with. They get away with crimes that others can’t and the reason behind that is because they make the government bad and when people turn on the government everything is in chaos.
The way law enforcement and authorities are looked upon when it comes to the law needs to change. They need to be treated like every other citizen is when is comes to crimes especially murder. Throughout the last couple of decades from as far as one could think the police has gotten away with things like murder with the excuse of saying they were in self defense but the evidence adds up time and time again that they were actually in no harm but still they tend to get off easy due to them being in law enforcement. They need to be held to their actions as if they were a regular citizen. Murder isn’t they only thing that they get away with when it comes to crimes but the only reason that they continue to do what they do is because of them not being held to their responsibilies.
When they are put to trial to be held responsible or not for what has been done they need to be looked at as if they were a regular citizen instead of as if they were above one that doesn’t have that job. Being a police officer is like having a job but one that comes with some responsibilities and that is a little bit more dangerous than other jobs. It is one that one signs up for and they know what they are walking into, just because one wants to be a police officer doesn’t mean they should get away with certain things. That is like saying that if one wants to do something and have a better/ high chance of getting away with it then they should be a police officer, fbi agent or some sort of law enforcer.
Not only will this change stop crimes among law enforcement and stop them from getting away with what they get away with but it will also help make the country a better place and the citizens feel safer in the place that they call home.
It is argued that what has been put in place is good and there is nothing wrong with it, the country that we live in today is safe and that it is fine how it is. It could be argued that nothing needs to change and things are good. When it comes to training and who carries a gun and who doesn’t it could be argued that nothing needs to be changed at all as it is good in the way officers and enforcement goes about things and ways in how they handle certain things. There would be big problems if things were to change with training and how things are carried out like traffic stops. If enforcement was to not have guns and things like when it came to traffic stops then it could be argued that one would not be taken seriously and the lives of the enforcement and officers could and would be put in danger.
When it comes to benefits and therapy and the way they go about handling officers of law enforcement that are dealing with stress and are traumatized it could be argued that the person knew what all came with the job and that is what they signed up for. A person shouldn’t get time off for doing what was in the job description because after all they did check the box on the application that says they can do this job to the fullest extent without any problems.
When it comes to the way cops are prosecuted for crimes and held accountable for things as if they were a regular citizen and not as if they were a cop or an agent then it could stop the amount of people that go into enforcement and law. It could be argued their lives are put in danger at a higher risk than any other career in America and because of that they are at caution more cautious which causes them to act in a different manner.
With the changes that have been explained that should take place with law enforcement and police officers not only will it help make it a safer place all around in which what they are here to do but the lives of everyone will be better all around. Officers do not have to feel as if they are not looked out for and as if they are the bad guys to the citizens eyes. The everyday person doesn’t have to feel as if their life are in jeopardy or feel as if they can not trust the people that are put into place to protect them.
