“It's very difficult to speak to a large group of people these days and not offend someone. I know people walk around with their feelings on their shoulders waiting for you to say something - ahh - did you hear that? And they can't hear anything else you say.

“The profession of magician, is one of the most perilous and arduous specializations of the imagination. On the one hand there is the hostility of God and the police to be guarded against; on the other it is as difficult as music, as deep as poetry, as ingenious as stage-craft, as nervous as the manufacture of high explosives, and as delicate as the trade in narcotics.” HandsDifficultImaginationMagicStagePoliceTradeProfessionNervousCraftsDelicateMagicianHostilityIngeniousGuardedExplosivesSpecializationNarcotics Author:William Bolitho

“Campaigns are fun. Campaigns are police escorts, they're airplanes, they're crowds, they're balloons, they're bands, a lot of fun. You speak in vague generalities. You get applause for slogans. And then governing comes. And governing is tedious and it's difficult an it's time-consuming and it demands your attention. And policy isn't vague generalities. It's specifics and it's based on knowledge.” SpeakFunDifficultAttentionPolicyBandDemandPoliceCrowdsCampaignsAirplaneVagueSlogansApplauseConsumingGoverningTediousBalloonsGeneralitiesTime ConsumingSpecifics Author:Mark Shields
“I think this mythology - that we're all beyond race, of course our police officers aren't racist, of course our politicians don't mean any harm to people of color - this idea that we're beyond all that (so it must be something else) makes it difficult for young people as well as the grown-ups to be able to see clearly and honestly the truth of what's going on. It makes it difficult to see that the backlash against the Civil Rights Movement manifested itself in the form of mass incarceration, in the form of defunding and devaluing schools serving kids of color and all the rest.” PeopleThinkingWellsMeanIdeasKidsAbleSchoolFormYoungCoursesDifficultRaceRightsMovementColorPoliticianMassPoliceHarmHonestlyMythologyCivil RightsRacistServingOfficersCivil Rights MovementPolice OfficerIncarcerationBacklashMass Incarceration Author:Michelle Alexander
“I have always taken the view that sometimes war may be justified, as police action can be justified, to protect the weak and vulnerable (a major preoccupation in scripture).

“In general, I think there are some things that require time before you can talk about them. Some stuff that happened over the summer, for instance - the Philando Castile shooting, Alton Sterling, the police officers in Dallas - there was no room for jokes. But there are, of course, the policies that have given us those events. Now, there's a lot of room for jokes there. When you're looking at something difficult to talk about, there's always a sideways way in that feels a little less personal to people. That's where the joke lives.” PeopleThinkingDifficultPolicySummerJokesPolicePolice OfficerSideways Author:Negin Farsad
“What we have to ask is this: what can we morally expect of and allow to people whom we deploy to fulfill this or that social role :police officer, school teacher, physician? This may sometimes lead to difficult social decisions - e.g. should police be permitted to illegally import drugs as part of a sting operation? In the end, I think "common - that is, critical - morality" should determine the limits of the police role.” PeopleThinkingSometimesSchoolDifficultDecisionCommonTeacherMoralityDrugPoliceDeterminePolice Officer Author:John Kleinig

“The ruling class doesn't care about public safety. Having made it very difficult for States and localities to police themselves, having left ordinary citizens with no choice but to protect themselves as best they can, they now try to take our guns away.
