The modern era doesn’t escape either: “pride comes before the fall” has become a common maxim‚ while commonly sought-after qualities in an employee include

According to Maalouf‚ a person shouldn’t have to define himself or his identity to people if he were exposed or raised according to different cultures.

In law enforcement‚ officers deal with a variety of calls‚ some being easier than others to deal with. When that happens‚ a mentality of “us versus them” can start to form with the public.

It can be easier for an officer to be strict on all the rules

Officers should be taught that the lives of civilians are in their hands and they need to take extra precautions. A plan should be thought of in which these guidelines are taught to officers better and have them understanding the importance of each.

Profiling has long been a subject of contempt when it comes to policing. Immediately following the attacks of 9/11‚ there was a surge in profiling in the United States. One can assume that the uptick in profiling stems from the horrid events that transpired on the day the United States was struck the hardest. In the aftermath of the 9/11 events‚ the predictive analysis tools were used by the intelligence community to assess and or thwart potential threats. This technique was supposed to be used to
