Country for Old Men” and “Fargo”. The opening scene of NCFOM where Anton Chigurh strangles the cop to death instantly reminded me of when Gaear Grimsrud in Fargo shoots and kills the police officer in the head after only getting stopped for a minor traffic incident. “Money is the root of all evil” is a one of the common themes both “No Country for Old Men” and “Fargo” share.

there would be no light, blackouts happen all the time during war. Every horror movie has the thing that is making the characters stay where they are, and a horror movie can often be judged on how effective and innovate this confining factor is.

perform his duty the ethical way. The way that he handled the situation demonstrates that he is not a morally good or ethical person. I believe that Ross is not a good representation of the department or the community. I understand that he wanted to put Andrews in jail since he was a child molester and he didn’t want the same things to keep occurring. The parents also did not make a good decision. Their daughter will end up traumatized for what happened and I believe the parents should have…

(Schmalleger, 2016, p.114-115) -This idea is a very basic partnership, between with police and the community. In doing so, they can solve problems and crime together as one unit. -The Watchmen style of policing is looked down upon being it can give a bad name to any department. (Schmalleger, 2016, p.115) >Informal police intervention >Persuasion/Threats >”Roughing up” convicts -Legalistic style of policing is when officers heavliy enforce the “letter of the…

take a bus than the train.” (Kopp) Although the crime rate has dropped greatly over the past few years, the subway still isn’t the safest place to be especially at night. Most of the crimes that occur near or on the subway are not extremely violent. A good majority of the incidents that happen are cell phone thefts. SEPTA has tried solving these problems. They attempted this by having more officers on duty at a time which has actually helped a lot. Their new strategy has become to place their…

and how police should be educated, trained, and deployed. This must be done before it is too late.” (Couper 1) David C. Couper then explains in the letter, “I have come to the conclusion that the problem is not bad cops, but rather a bad system of training. It is a vast problem. The good news: It is a correctable one. But solving the problem must start now.” (Couper 1) “It is impossible to have this discussion without acknowledging the role of race. Police in America practice often two styles…

hanging out with the wrong people or the wrong crowd, a person could get in trouble or get a bad reputation. A good example of this is when my best friend *Jim and I went to Garden City to a church event. About two years ago my best friend Jim and I were on our way to Garden to the church event.
