THE FUTURE OF LAW ENFORCEMENT IN THE US.
IS SOCIAL ORDER NOW IN QUESTION?
"Defund the Police." It was the battle cry of the major cites. Well, that was last year. My, how times have changed. Crime rates, in the large cities that is, are up across the country, specificly in the large cities. Some have come up with the rediculas cover story, "it's becuase of Covid". You know, the number one Boogyman "some" use to terroize the population. And what do we see now? Yep, the same city leaders who walked away from the men and women of law enforcment, now, now crying for more police.

The law of Second and Third Order Effects:
Did the leadership of the US major cities realize what they were doing when they took to the podium and spoke of defunding the police? Yes. Did they dream of changing their departments to fit what they believed were the social norms of their cities? Yes. Did any of them have a clue what the social norms truly were? No. So, their intention was to change, restructure the Law Enforcement departments based on the actions of one or two events. By the way, look at the US national statistic and see what percentage of "violence" by LE against citizens actually takes place in the US, and you will have the true picture of what these so-called city leaders claimed to be addressing. They knew what they were doing, what they did not anticipate was what they were warned of, and that makes their consequences theirs, and only their responsibility. Was the morale of the men and women of law enforcement damaged? More than most citizens understand. Did the men and women of law enforcement continue to do their job? Yes. Why? Because unlike the vote-motivated leaders they work for, these men and women care about the communities they serve. You see, professionals do what is right, not what is politically advantageous, and that my friends is the difference between the law enforcement community and the leadership they work for. but, at the end of the day, the impact is there. The number of police officers in these major cities is decreasing and the city so called leaders can't stop the process.
The Future is not promising:
If there is one thing that should disturb the people in these major cities more than the rising crime rate, it's the process many of these cities are attempting to implement as they claim to be "addressing the systemic issues of law enforcement." Many major departments are going through a "Reimaging" process! What doe that mean?

Law Enforcement must change, adapt as society changes, but those changes must be based on actual data, legal guidance, and other standard guidelines. It can't be changed in a fluid, ideological environment, one that is based on votes and holding on to power. So, the question becomes, what changes are these city leaders implementing, and are they going to make the system better or worse? Let me put this question to you in another way. If a large city decides to only recruit "social justice advocates, ones that are passive, progressive by nature, and they are placed into a "reimaged" academy system, what will be the outcome on the streets of those cities? If you hire Telutubies and doctor their training to meet the social image the city leaders desire, what happens when they encounter true, evil criminals at 2am? I will tell you what will happen. The Teletubies will either turn into real Police Officers or they will quit. Can you imagine, five years from now, the story coming out of the US major cities is the turnover rate of 65 or 70 percent, and that is based on a fictitious, delusional, hiring process and training program. Worse, how many of these new " Reimaged" Police Officers will be injured or killed in the line of duty? Folks, this is the real world of law enforcement. This is the reality most large city leaders in the US refuse to grasp. Can they change the course of what is taking place in their cities? Yes. Will it make their cities safer? We shall see. In the meantime, the men and women of the Thin Blue Line are leaving and leaving in massive numbers. The clock is taking and the so-called leaders of these cities are starting to see the Law of Unintended Consequences appear right before their eyes.
