Replying to LO21093 --

The relevance of learning in a police force must fist consider the
community environment first. At least in the case of the police force,
they seem to protect and serve their own interests. that's why in large
cities, especially in minority neighborhoods can you see the NEED for
police review boards.

The hindrance to these review boards, and internal dialogue(isn't that
what internal affairs is for?) being created is similar to that of a
parent being opposed to someone else disciplining that parent's child.
The police looks at its own as a family/community/culture and it seems
that they want to be protected from who they are supposed to protect and
be responsible to and for. paradoxical huh?
