It Starts with You. We are on the verge of a critical movement in this country, one where each individual will start to recognize how easy it is to make a difference in the security of our country. This collective consciousness will change the face of national security. This is why it is important to understand that YOU, as well as every other US citizen, can make a difference. Very few Americans are aware of the fact that 12 million violent crimes are committed per year in the United States, with an estimated one fifth of the population falling victim to these crimes. Aside from that, it is well-known that the threat of terrorism is always prevalent, allusive and in many cases, "invisible." We have domestic threats from criminals, as well as foreign threats from terrorists. But how can an individual citizen make a real difference in the protection of America? It can be done and it is easier than you think.Liberty and security do not compete in a zero-sum game. Our freedoms are the very foundation of our strength and security. But the very definition of security usually requires a few questions that need to be answered before security measures are put in place. Who or what are we trying to protect? Who or what are we trying to protect it from? It stands to reason that, in light of the recent shootings, bombings and other acts of violence, we have a lot more to protect than just ourselves. We have families, neighborhoods, communities, businesses and the nation that all need our attention. That's why it is so important for us to rededicate efforts to our personal and national security to ensure that what transpires in the course of our daily lives is protected. There exist various types of safety. There is personal safety and there is community safety, the latter of which falls under local, state and national security. To begin with personal safety, experts for decades have long studied what makes an individual more likely to be the target of any given crime. As for national security, those aims and targets are more difficult to see, but can also be deterred with the same awareness. I want to help you understand one main foundation of personal and community safety, which exists in all of us. It's that innate feeling we have when we know something isn't right in a situation or an environment. It is the hair that stands up on our neck when we know that danger is imminent. I call this our "sixth sense," which is the ability to intrinsically perceive possible threats without consciously knowing where that threat is coming from. Think about it. How many of us have the ability to naturally sense when something feels "off," yet these feelings are often dismissed or mocked? Humans are the only animals who sense danger, yet walk right into it. Rather than offend the person who has triggered our fear instinct, we usually choose being polite over being safe. For example, we might politely enter an elevator with a person who, for some unknown reason, has triggered our fear instinct rather than risk appearing rude and waiting for the next elevator.What people do not know is that there is now solid scientific evidence that their "sixth sense" can save their life. "Instinct Science" is a rapidly emerging branch of research that studies the connection between subtle feelings and impending danger. Consider that even the U.S. Navy includes the word "6th sense" in their combat training briefs, citing that some soldiers use it to feel danger before an enemy attack. This may sound contrary to your conditioned beliefs of practicality and polite well-being, but how many times have you heard crime victims report having a "gut instinct" or warning prior to the actual incident. The subsequent ignoring of these "gut instincts" was followed with a crime that could have otherwise been avoided or minimized had these "gut instincts" or warnings been heeded and respected as possible truths.

Crime and Justice in America: Critical Issues of the Future is a part of the Pergamon Policy Studies and is divided in five parts reflecting five broad problem areas. This collection is from authors chosen based on their exposure to the field of criminal justice and proven expertise in a particular area. The book deals with the forecasting ability of the police for developments over the whole field of public affairs. The first part is concerned with public law enforcement on local, county, state, and national government levels of the American federal system. A particular problem is discussed on each of these levels. The second problem area concerns the most confusing segment of the justice system – the move from the public to the private sector of criminal justice. The growth of campus, school police, and other private police is suggested to assist the public sector. The third part deals with organized crime, terrorism, and hostage negotiations as being grave threats to society. To fight them requires cooperation, even consolidation, and intelligence sources. Organized crime is discussed in the fourth section, where American penal laws are seemingly a reflection of religious mores. The last section covers personnel matters in the criminal justice system and anticipated developments after achieving professionalism in the police and correctional services. This book is intended for scholars, practitioners, and students of criminal justice. This text can prove useful to practitioners in the fields of sociology, psychology, and public administration. This book is also recommended for investigators and private citizens interested in the study of criminal justice.

In Crime is Not the Problem, Franklin Zimring and Gordon Hawkins revolutionize the way we think about crime and violence--by forcing us to distinguish between crime and violence. The authors reveal that compared to other industrialized nations, in most categories of nonviolent crime, American crime rates are comparable--even lower, in some cases. Only when it comes to lethal violence does the United States outpace other Western nations, with homicide rates many, many times greater. London and New York City have nearly the same number of robberies and burglaries each year, but robbers and burglars kill 54 victims in New York for every victim death in London. Why are the risks so much greater that victims will be killed or maimed in the United States? And what can be done to bring the death rate from American violence down to tolerable levels? The authors show how the impact of television and movie violence on rates of homicide is wildly overrated, but emphasize the paramount importance of guns. By making the crucial distinction between lethal violence and crime in general, the authors clear the ground for a targeted, far more effective response to the real crisis in American society. Crime is Not the Problem will reshape the debate about crime control in the United States.

With terrorist attacks around the world and here at home and an increase in American workplace violence, I am both passionate and driven to offer valuable information concerning what I believe to be one of the more important topics in the world today: Anti-terrorism and Workplace/Home Protection. For 2 decades, I've taught around the world. Now, it's time to share with you the secrets the bad guy doesn't want you to know! The threats we face are real, and the consequences of conducting "business as usual" brings about severe consequences. PROTECT AMERICA is an in-depth educational training guide designed to offer recommendations/suggestions to both the public and private sector to foster smarter habits and a new attitude when it comes to security, terrorism and violence at work and at home. A peek inside includes a real and awakening look at "lessons learned" examining incidents of terrorist attacks on our nation and vicious workplace attacks. We show you how to "Fight Back." We examine the significance of workplace exercises, and how vital these "practice scenarios" are to the success of the workplace and it's people. We show you how to design your own Site Specific workplace procedures for bomb threats and suspicious packages, duress, emergency and response actions, blood borne pathogens and first aid techniques, and identifying suspicious personnel inside the workplace and around your home. We look at personal and family security to include travel security and special precautions for children. Created are scenarios to make you think, called "what would you do"? And finally, a chapter dedicated to those heros, unsung heros and everyday people doing the right thing..called I SALUTE AND HONOR (Strength. Spirit and Determination).

The second edition of Crime Policy in America describes the process of policy-making and the substantive nature of policy directions in crime and justice in America, particularly from the beginning of the 1970s. This book examines the nature of presidential policy-making in crime and justice from Nixon to Obama, congressional policy-making since the birth of the Bill of Rights, and judicial policy-making since the promulgation of the Judicial Act of 1789. The perspective of this book is deeply historical, sociological, and legalistic. Historically, the book has explored the evolution of different policy strategies at different periods of American history; sociologically, it scrutinized the impact of the get-tough policy paradigm on crime and justice, and from a legal perspective it has examined the conflict and the consensus of Congress and the federal judiciary on different issues of crime and justice from drug crimes to sex crimes to counterterrorism. The second edition of the book has particularly illuminated the changing directions of US crime policy from the dominance of the “get tough” approach in the 1980s and 1990s to a more balanced approach to crime control and prevention in the beginning of the 21sr century.
