Systems Failure: The Failure of Law Enforcement to Serve and Protect
To our elected officials make the change.
Sincerely,
Charles D. Sharp
With the same fervor and expediency that created the
organization and structure at the Federal level for the Department of Homeland
Security. This fervor change must also be conducted with great expediency at
the Federal, State, County, City, townships, and other jurisdictions for the
establishment of a new law enforcement model in the the U.S.
Communities will continue to lose trust in law enforcement if changes across the board are not enacted.
Now is the time for Federal Elected Officials, Governors, Mayors, City Council members,, Law Enforcement officials, and community members to make the change.
Communities will continue to lose trust in law enforcement if changes across the board are not enacted.
Now is the time for Federal Elected Officials, Governors, Mayors, City Council members,, Law Enforcement officials, and community members to make the change.
We must proceed with a change across the board, or members of
the community. Vulnerable members, the 'whole community' will
foresee 'business as usual' in both the Courts, and Law
Enforcement.
Why does BEMA International comprised of homeland security,
emergency management, Fire\EMS, Law Enforcement members voice this concern for
change?
The profession of law enforcement plays a key role in all phases
of emergency management (preparedness, planning, response, recovery,
mitigation) within the incident command system (ICS).
WHAT ROLE DOES LAW ENFORCEMENT PLAY IN EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT?
Without the trust, credibility, and transparency in our law
enforcement profession and changes needed for 2020 and beyond. A ‘business
as usual’ approach will be the norm.
Sincerely,
Charles D. Sharp

“We
are now faced with the fact that tomorrow is today. We are confronted
with the fierce urgency of now.
In
this unfolding conundrum of life and history there is such a thing as being
too late. Procrastination is still the thief of time. Life often
leaves us standing bare, naked and dejected with a lost opportunity.
This may well be mankind’s last chance to choose between chaos or
community.” Dr. Martin Luther King,
Jr., ‘Where Are We Going From Here: Chaos or Community’.
