We hold these truths to be self evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
In Congress…
Constructs of a civilized society, by those in authority
Vested interest in status quo
Law enforcement are agents of the government
Laws and Morals
A term that describes the way government and other public and private institutions systematically afford the majority class an array of social, political and economic advantages, simply because they are a member of the majority class, while marginalizing and putting at a disadvantage the minority class.

One-half of lynchings involved police participation9 out of 10 of the remaining lynchings officers either condone or “wink” at the action
From 1898 to 1943 in almost every race riot, police sided with the attackers by actual participation or failing to act

PLUS Decision Making ModelFundamentally sound
Simple and straightforward
Descriptive vs. Prescriptive
1. Define Problem
2. Identify Objectives
3. Identify Solutions and Alternatives
4. Evaluate Consequences
5. Make Decision
6. Implement Decision
7. Evaluate Decision
PLUS Steps
Defining the Problem
Difference between Expected/Desired and Actual
How the problem is defined determines causes and where to look for available solutions
Identify ObjectivesObjectives are the desired
outcomesDirectly related to the
defined problemShort-term is immediate and
specificLong-term is persistent and
broadDecision point within the
system may affect identified objectives
Identify Solutions and Alternatives
Solutions/alternatives are directly influenced by prior steps
Be open to new options
No less than three (3) solutions
Ideally all solutions should be identified
Realistically, five (5) solutions should be considered
Evaluate Consequences
Identify positive and negative aspects of each solution/alternative
Limit personal perceptions, biases, and predispositions
Evaluate the probability of the desired result
More facts means it is more likely the desired outcome will be realized
Make the Decision
Steps one through four may be assessed differently based on stakeholder’s interest
Interests may be competing with multiple stakeholders
Implement the Decision
Action itself is the first real tangible step toward the desired outcome.
Evaluate the DecisionEvaluation of the decision and outcome is the bridge to the next decisionFocus should be on whether the desired outcome is realized
Has the desired outcome changed or are there more options now, thus resulting in the need for the cycle to begin again?
PLUS Ethical Filters
Is the decision consistent with policies and procedures?
P Policies
Is the decision acceptable according to applicable laws and regulations?
L Legal
Does it conform to universal principles and values?EPIC is a good acronym to use for universal values: Empathy, Patience, Integrity, and CourageDoes the decision meet my personal definition of right, good, and fair?
U Universal
S Self
