Hi Arun,

Your work experience with police departments concludes my clear understanding about diversity policing. I know it is not an easy job as a law enforcer. I agree with you female police officer is not quite accepted by our society(mostly in the eyes of men). However, it is good to see diverse police officers protecting civilians. Eventually, people will learn to embrace female officer expose on the field.

For Hate symbols I think it is a self expression and self belongingness, It is impressive that you have those (tatoos) symbols, I would think it translate that you are protected with groups.

Thank you for sharing,

    The Ferguson Police Department: Community Analysis

    Aside from stating the three goals and eight primary obligations of the police as outlined in the text by Cordner (2014), and the common standard answers of “honesty, loyalty, courage, and fairness”, I believe a department has to share the values of the community it serves. So, being diverse and reflecting the community makeup (as much as possible without reducing standards or compromising previously mentioned traits) is an important step to gaining the respect and trust of the community. It was reported that the Ferguson police department was/is disproportionality comprised and was/is not a reflection of the community it serves, and has been an issues of contention for years (Sanders, 2014). Another element I believe to be important is…

    ahead of them, and proposing methods of trust building with Asian communities may not pan out because Asians already have a preexisting bias against law enforcement (Choe, 2012). Both sides must have trust in one another; agree to conduct peaceful dialogues and mediation in order to solve various issues. Culturally competent police officers When officers fail to comprehend a specific culture and their linguistics, critical information could easily be misinterpreted, or it could also fall into the fine lines of racial profiling (Newburn, 2011). Police officers must be trained in skills that could help them deal with various incidents in Asian communities.…

    Diversity In Criminal Justice

    Hello Carley, your discussion was very informative and well put together. Since Multiculturalism I a hot topic for Criminal Justice, do you think that all personals should be trained or just those who been in the department for a longer period of time? When you talk about “Some people agree and others disagree with the involvement of the right to privacy”, what side of the spectrum are you on? In the reading Shusta, Levine, Wong, & Harris (2005) states that we should continue to teach our officers, judges, lawyers, parole officers and so forth due to the changes of diversity. When it comes to multicultural differences we all have to be able to see diversity in the same means and context as one another.…

    Role Of Diversity In Law Enforcement

    I agree with you that diversity is a must in law enforcement. If we are unwilling to diversify, we are handicapping ourselves as law enforcement. I appreciate the fact that you bring up community policing projects and being able to identify with the community and neighborhoods in which we serve. My department is behind in this area, but are making a conscious effort to grow in this area.…

    Should The Police Department Be Aware Of Multicultural Communities

    I believed that the police department have to be aware of the different cultures within a multicultural communities. An officer's duty is to help and create a trusting bond between the communities, whether it is a multicultural communities or not. If an officer is not aware of the different culture custom within a communities then it would create a friction between the multicultural communities. This does not only will cause conflict but also a mistrusted between the police department and the public. Which is why it is important for the police department to be responsibility aware of the different custum within a culture.…

    Women In Law Enforcement Issues

    The issue I find most disturbing that women face in law enforcement is the issue of sexual harassment. At no point should a women be victimized in this way especially with and industry that is supposed to be upholding the law. Sexual harassment can be looked at in a number of ways. First, a written policy must be in place with broad terms and strict outlines of reprimands. Second, have a clear chair of command and open door policy when it comes to reporting and identifying officers who violate the policies.…

    Female Police Retention

    The police force in the United States today is facing a problem retaining female police officers. With the passage of The Equal Employment Opportunity Act of 1972 (EEOA) it gave women the opportunity to join the police force (Garland, McCarty, & Zhao, 2007), accepting 4.6% female officers by 1980. In 1999, female officers comprised 14.3% of officers (Archbold, He, & Zhao, 2002) but in 2001, The National Center for Women and Policing reported a drop resulting in only 12.7% female officers (Paynich & Seklecki, 2007). Throughout the years that followed the representation of female officers continued decreasing, bringing it to 11.8% in 2011 (Schuck, 2014). Thus far the reasons for the poor retention have yet to be thoroughly researched.…

    Women In Policing

    In today's world, heavy weightings of females tend to attach to the police and military forces, which put an unprecedented strain on some individuals who believe that it is unsuitable work for women; however, from my perspective, although this can produce moderately positive effect, its negative consequences are by far more than the advantages Were women to accredit for a more community-oriented style of policing, its profound impacts, which are inexorably linked, would certainly reflect on the society as a whole. It is substantially as a consequence of the fact that as women scarcely react violently in enormously dangerous situations, whereas listening to offenders, they can make a more reasonable decision than their men counterparts.

In the words of Dillon Haley, and the American Psychological Association (2017) “The general motivations for getting tattoos and piercings have tended to fall into the same three categories for hundreds of years:(a) a symbol of an important past event, love, or friendship, (b) group membership, and/or (c) a marker of individuality.” (p.1) Tattoos that fall into the realm of symbols of important past events, love, or friendship could display work such as a name of a loved one alive or deceased to show their fondness for…

    Police Officer Differences

    Nearly 12 percent of today’s police force are made up of women and approximately 20 percent are represented by ethnic minorities. In 2000, about 11 percent of all police officers were women and fewer than 7 percent of state police officers. The number of women in a department depends on many variables, department recruitment policies and local economic conditions that may or may not make policing an attractive career for men or women. (brass) There are several factors that influence a minority officer’s experience. According to Dr. Kirschman, these factors include the climate of the organization where the officer works, the degree of the department’s administrative and supervisory support and its commitment to fairness to all employees, the community attitudes and politics, prevailing norms in society, the…

    Definition Of Diversity

    The true meaning behind the word “diversity” has become muddled as the passage of time carries on. The definition is not persistent across different contexts, as the first subject that typically comes to mind when “diversity” is mentioned, is race. Such a subtext has been artificially implanted into the public consciousness due to the persistent goal of a “fair” ethnic diversity in society. Diversity can mean a variety of differences among all groups of people or ideas that help shape the way humans naturally behave with one another; but if diversity is forced simply to want diversity, it may create some sort of backlash from the conservative forces against the diversity that nature offers. The meaning of the word diversity in employment and…

    A substantial number of ethnic minority citizens regard the police as racist and insensitive (Waters & Hardy, 2007).

The data demonstrates that there is still a significant underrepresentation of diversity with police…
