Mr. Earp,

We may come from very different perspectives in the city, but we can agree on one thing. We have got to start snitchin’.

But no matter how much our logic makes sense to us, we’ve got to find a way to communicate it to the ones that need to be convinced the most. If you already buy into “Stop Snitching” then there is probably something fundamentally different about the way you think. We need to find a way to speak to that person.

I’ve created a website for that purpose: To open a dialogue for opposing views to come together and find common ground. And hopefully we can learn to speak each other’s languages. Philly unite!

Finally, someone who’s willing to say enough is enough and is willing to back it up wth more than just talk. Good for you, Mr. Moore.

I hope this helps.

Jacksonville has been invaded with “no snitching” movement lately.

I’m sorry but, reading the above, here’s how you MAKE A DIFFERENCE.

In Copdom, you STOP all the BULLSHIT BOUTIQUE units created by the Grant-Grabbing Assholes of the late 90′s and early 2000′s, and roll EVERYONE back into PATROL functions and give them and harness them with RESPONSIBILITY for EACH and EVERY CALL they encounter. Give them the TOOLS and the TIME you allegedly proffer to your ACRONYM UNITS.

You want problems solved?? Let STREET COPS do it.

I don’t quite know how you encourage this, but the COURAGE it took for that stance should be PUBLICLY acknowledged from now until forever, particularly in such an urban and obvious venue as Philadelphia. I can only hope that this may be the beginning of some kind of TREND.

AJ Lynch – Sorry, but radio interviews are about the limit of my exposure at the moment.

RT – One can only hope. Mr. Moore is on the right track, though. It’s good to see.

It all begins with people trying to make a difference. While not everyone is helped that needs the positive influence, many will be and that is a good thing.

Hopefully, people will begin to cooperate with law enforcement, realizing that cooperation is the only way to safer streets.

Wyatt:

Write a post sometime with your Top Ten policing recommendations for big cities. Maybe you could get it printed in a large paper as an OPED (some of those pay you for it if they print it).
