    When horrific crimes occur in large cities, many of them can be chalked up to gang violence or to the larger population of that specific city.

    Nearly every aspect of law enforcement has a court decision that governs criteria. Most court rulings are the result of civil lawsuit towards a police officer and agency. However, currently, there is no law that mandates law enforcement driver training. When it comes to firearms, negligence by officers has resulted in a multitude of court rulings. Popow v. City of Margate, 1979, is a particularly interesting case that outlines failed firearms training by an agency. In this case, an officer chasing a suspect during a foot pursuit fired at the suspect, striking and killing an innocent bystander (Justia.com, 2017). The court ruled that the agency was “grossly negligent” of “failure to train” (Justia.com, 2017). As a result, nearly every agency requires annual firearms training and has written policy concerning the same. Officers must show proficiency in firearms use every year to maintain their certification. Many states even impose fines on officers for

    Amandeep scored low on the caring and support section on the resiliency quiz that involved him taking care of himself physically and emotionally. Amandeep says that he works 6 days a week for 12 hours a day so he does not feel like he has time to take care of himself. Therefore, I recommend that Amandeep find time to do things that he likes and enjoys for self-care. Amandeep believes that current adversities are amplified because of his high stress levels due to a lack of self-care. An option would be to do things that he loves like hiking and swimming. I would suggest that he join a community Recreation Center or a local pool in order to swim and relieve his stress. Additionally, he can make time during the week to attend a local park see he can hike and enjoying the scenery, while getting much needed exercise. Another option is to visit the local Wildlife Refuge located in Woodbridge, Virginia where he can see animals, scenery, and get exercise.
