Police Reform is Misguided Perhaps the rank and file of officers should take note and follow the protesters lead, standing up to their departments, affording the public the opportunity to know and understand what its really like to be a police officer. How police departments find themselves the defendant of Equal Employment Opportunity claims and Fair Labor Standards Act suits brought against them by their officers. The officer is asked to run toward the danger or gunshots and engage a subject that is threatening the officer's or another person life and make a millisecond decision that will be Monday morning quarterbacked by all and may result in the taking of someone's life or the officer going to jail for a m In summary there's a gap between training, departments message to their officers, the manner of how they want their officers to enforce laws and what really happens out on the street our intention should be to narrow that gap. Police officers need to train like navy seals, under high stress scenarios. Strategic Security Corp, a WBE, MBE, SDVOB founded in 2002, a nationwide integrated solutions provider has developed real world high stress scenario training for our officers Police are still needed despite the mass exit of officers due to service retirements or wave of current resignations. There are several functions performed by police officers that can be outsourced to private security affording tax payers considerable savings. Many departments require physical standards to get hired but none to maintain your employment. A physical and proficiently in firearms and restraining a suspect one on one should be a requirement. Let the misguided racial, ethic, police reform and de-funding outcries be directed not at the officers themselves but at the departments that set and force their policies Regardless of whether any de-policing effect results from dissent shirking or fear of public scrutiny, if officers become less engaged in proactive duties, de-funded or disbanded all together crime will increase.
