    In the article, “How Police Training Contributes to Avoidable Deaths” author Seth Stoughton shares his experience as a previous police officer as well of the experiences of others and states how the training of police officers “is part of the problem” (Stoughton 2014, pg.2) with police violence of present day. Police are trained to respond to every situation with the mentality of encountering a dangerous situation, and that hesitation can end up deadly for the officer (Stoughton 2014, pg.3). Police are also trained to be afraid (Stoughton 2014, pg.3). They are shown videos where officers are killed but aren’t given the chances of an civilian to officer violent interaction happening, which have gone down in the past years (Stoughton 2014, pg.5).

    Geoffrey P. Albert of the University of South Carolina, Griffith University focuses his essay, “Toward a National Database of Officer-Involved Shootings”, on the lack of a trustworthy database to keep track of such events like officer involved shootings. In regards to police involved shootings, an initial problem continues to be the fact that reporting these cases is optional for a department. With that being said, it is often that departments fail to formally report these shootings. Which then provides for inaccuracy when trying to determine an average number of shootings. His work is much needed in the police department society especially because they are in desperate need of an accurate and consistent way to record the data the erupts behind

    Lately in the United States, one hears of a new act of violence either by police or against police, fairly often. It seems to be reported far more these days, but is it occurring more now than in recent years? With the amount of technology we as a society now hold, where nearly everyone has a device on them at all times that is able to record video, police can always expected to be filmed while on the job or making an arrest. The amount of violence being covered on news media, tends to lead to anti-police sentiment which then also, in some instances, makes police targets of violence themselves. Either way peace and trust needs to be gained on both sides of the badge, and this is an issue that needs to be resolved.

  • Hate Against Police Officers

    446 Words  | 2 Pages

    There is a belief among some people that racist white police officers are hunting down innocent black men(Bandler, 2016). But thanks to a series of numbers brought to our eyes by the hand of a Heather Mac Donald, statistics from 2015 show that cops kill almost twice as many white people as black people (Mac Donald, 2016). On top of these statistics, the majority of the black victims were handling some kind of deadly weapon(Bandler, 2016). This does have a direct correlation with the amount of force used within the police force simply because of judgement and the way an intense time could alter the way people think or feel about specific situations(Bandler, 2016). Today, these specific situations almost seem like any traffic stop or crime confrontation(Bandler, 2016).
