Lowell Police Essay, Research Paper
Lowell Police
My independent project was done on a whimsical basis. It’s
thanksgiving eve and my family and I are all gathered around watching football.
The Redskins and Cowboy’s are all tied up, and my uncle is on the verge of
having a nervous breakdown. A diehard Cowboys fan, who can’t even remember when
was the last time he didn’t bet on a game. Mom and dad are still eating, while
my aunt recites a thanksgiving song for all the uninvited guests. The door bell
rings, and what do you know it’s the Lowell Police. Officers Bob Jacob and
William Gould stop by on their neighbor-hood patrol. My aunt invities them in
for some coffee, and they end up eating the rest of our thanksgiving dinner.
For some strange reason I think of Sociology.( Do you think they’ll arrest me if
I asked them too.) I asked if they had some spare time to indulge me in my
experiment, and they were delighted to do so. (This also gave me a chance to
show my parents I was actually doing something productive in school.) They
placed the hand-cuffs on me and read me my rights. I have to admit the whole
thing was quite funny, but I would never want it to happen in a real situation.
The cuffs where killing me, but I took it like a man. They gave me a ride
around the block where I had the chance to ask them a few questions.
1. What made you want to become a cop?
2. How do you feel about kids and our constant drug problem?
3. Do you think certain laws should apply to certain situations?
4. Do you feel you are making a significant contribution to society?
5. What’s the number one crime you constantly encounter?
Bob became a cop because it was a family thing. William became a cop
because he thought he could make a difference, and he lost a brother so I didn’t
push the subject any further. As for drugs, both agreed that they enforce no
drugs to the letter of the law. From a joint to an once it’s all the same. The
repercussions vary, but that’s not their job, they leave it up for the courts to
decide what type of steps should be taken. They do admit at times to scarring
kids, saying that their going away for a long time, and basically just being
more lenient. When I asked if they thought killing someone in self defense was
wrong, they replied if you can’t call us first then by all means do anything
necessary to escape. Both agreed they feel better when they have done a good
nights job, but wish more could be done to ensure people a right to live as they
wish no matter where that might be. The number one crime in committed in Lowell
is drug dealing and abuse. As a matter of fact Lowell was rated number one in
the country in this category. Just recently the biggest drug bust in New
England was reported there. This just goes to show what these men and women
encounter every night when they put on that uniform.
