Decent Essays
This class has taught me a lot about how to write papers the correct way in all forms because when I first started the class I had explained to you my problems I have with writing papers like: where to put my punctuation marks, my papers be short from the required length, and straying off topic in my paper. So I am glad to say that while in English I have improved my skills a lot in those three things, and that is all to the amazing English Teacher you are you helped me out a lot with breaking the papers down so we could have time to do the paper, and understand the topic that we was assigned to write on. In the career I am hoping to go into is the police field during this English class I was able to research everything I needed to know about police officers to see would this be the right job for me later on in the future, and from everything I it seems like this would be the job for me, the police departments main thing today is to keep their police officers safe at the end of the day so that they will all go home safe to their families, and children so that is a very good thing that the police departments do that means that they really care about the police officers that …show more content…
But overall all those writing assignments have taught me how to think outside of the box when writing so you will always have a backup plan when something does not go right when you writing your papers, I have multiple times where when writing my papers I have got stuck, and had to change my whole idea just so my paper would make sense, and be a good paper. That’s why it is always best to brain storm your ideas before you just up, and start writing it will help you out a lot in the long run because you will be organized, and

    Police Militarization Good or Bad After watching “Do Not Resist” by Craig Atkinson and reviewing some articles the class realized that the police are not trained on how to use the military equipment, but yet they are given this equipment. We are just now learning about how the police are gaining all these supplies and how they are not being trained on how to use it but why are we just now hearing about all this. In the article “Trump Endorses Militarization of Police…”, John Haltiwanger mentions “The transfer of extra weapons and gear from the military to local police began via the 1033 program” (par. 16). That program was developed way back in 1989 but now some have a different view on what kind of equipment the police officers should…

    Warren (2008) stated there is an inequality between black and whites causing them to be treated differently when interacting with cops. Race is a predictor of how police interact with individuals, especially between blacks and whites. Not much is known about Hispanics or other minority groups and their interaction or perception of the police. It is popularly believed these other minorities have similar views towards law enforcement due to their similar economic and social statuses. In order to criticize race as a predictor it is important to look at other racial groups besides black and whites.…

    Ever since sophomore year of high school I’ve always wanted to become a police officer. When we were told to go to the website ihaveaplaniowa.gov to take tests to figure out what kind of jobs we would like, corrections were one of the first results. I knew I didn’t want corrections, but something along those lines seemed to sound right for me. I thought about it then I knew I wanted to be a police officer. Dealing with crimes while they were taking place, chasing down ‘bad guys’, and just simple community services to make people’s lives easier.…

    Police and the Black Community Currently, the actual relationship between the African American community and the United States police is going through a bad time. The reasons for that recent civil disorders in the United States are police brutality and the discrimination acts against black people. While the election of Barack Obama as president had seemed to be a new era in American race relations; the killings of Michael Brown in Ferguson, Missouri, and Trayvon Martin in Sanford, Florida, made clear that nothing had changed. Many African American communities allege that the police routinely use excessive force against members of minority populations (Wintersmith, 1974). During the last years, the grotesque and routine police violence against African Americans has provoked several civil problems like the great Los Angeles riots.…

    Police Use of Force, what does it mean to you? This topic has always interested me, especially now with all the scrutiny towards the police. With all the media advances the police are always watched and criticized for every move that they make. The media portrays the police as bias and a power driven force that is untrustworthy and lack the ability to keep the streets safe. Due to the research and the interview I conducted with Sargent Terry Walters of the Logan Township PA Police Department, I have evidence that proves that the police are not as subjectively bias as the media portrays them to be.…

    In an article titled “The Police Were Created to Control Working Class and Poor People, Not ‘Serve and protect’’ by Sam Mitrani the editor states that police officers were never made to serve and protect the population. They were not made to stop crime or promote justice. Instead, Ms. Mitrani states that around the nineteenth century “police officers” were made to protect the new age of wage-labor from the so called threat of the working class. Then she continues on to give evidence of such cases but in the same sense “police officers” had a choice on where or not they wanted to hold such a title. The evolution and meaning of a police officer has changed since the 19th century.…

    English Composition I taught me a lot about myself, including how to be a better college student, through the process of writing. At the beginning of the year, I was not very excited about having to write argumentative papers. This is because I did not care enough about the assigned topics to have an opinion. But, I did learn a lot that I would not have known otherwise from having to research information about the topics I chose to write about. For example, in paper #2, I wrote about the niqab and how I believe that it is oppressive to women.…

    This English class has been very helpful in my efforts to improve my writing abilities, but has also been very challenging due to there being a different median for every essay. It’s been a heavy work load especially this semester since I decided to enroll in five classes, but in the end it has been very beneficial indeed. I can’t say that writing essays has been one of my strong points but I believe that this course has helped me improve tremendously and it has also made me feel a lot more comfortable with my writing. While in high school I would usually write all of my essays a day before the due date a habit of mine that was very difficult to overcome, but now I have learned from my mistakes.…
