Community Policing?

Community Policing?

Remember in the Way Back Machine the days of Officer Friendly - the police figure on the beat that was the "Face" to the community.

With increased work loads and squad cars needed to cover large areas many police forces lost that "face" and interaction with the local neighborhood.

Not that long ago "Community Policing" was the catch phrase of the year. Put the man/woman out there and get to know the neighborhood again. Be able to tell who was the bad guys and who was the good guys.

Reinventing the police wheel? Again?
