"Still, law enforcement has changed dramatically since 1983, when I joined the Arlington Police Department. Then, the department was more authoritarian. Decisions on policy were reached at the top, supposedly freeing officers from the burden of thinking for themselves. Today, officers are more autonomous. We expect them to understand and
apply the law evenly. We expect them to grasp the nature of social problems and the psychology of people with different attitudes toward the law. We expect officers to professionally and effectively handle disputes involving people from varying cultural, racial, and socio-economic backgrounds."
