“The abhorrence of society to the use of involuntary confessions does not turn alone on their inherent untrustworthiness. It also turns on the deep-rooted feeling that the police must obey the law while enforcing the law; that, in the end, life and liberty can be as much endangered from illegal methods used to convict those thought to be criminals as from the actual criminals themselves.” DoeEndsUseFeelingsLawUsedTurnsLibertyPoliceMethodCriminalsIllegalRootedConfessionInherentInvoluntaryConvictsAbhorrence Author:Earl Warren
“This feeling African-Americans have, this skepticism towards the police and the skepticism that the police show towards African-Americans is actually quite old.

“Doing something, however pathetic, is psychologically better than doing nothing. In the current political environment - that is, with no more Cold War tensions - the tendency is to counteract the feelings of fear and vulnerability with a variety of military, paramilitary and police measures, despite the reality that this kind of excessive reliance on force in many ways intensifies the very problem it is purporting to solve.” WayKindWarFeelingsProblemRealityPoliticalForceEnvironmentMilitaryColdPoliceCurrentsSolveTendenciesDespiteVarietyVulnerabilityTensionCold WarReliancePatheticDoing NothingPolitical Environment Author:Richard A.

“I especially appreciated hearing the President [Barack Obama] affirm that "black lives matter" and that it means that some citizens are feeling more pain, and experiencing more negative effects than others, and he offered up the stats. He also indicated that black lives matter does not negate the fact that blue lives matter. He ably walked the tightrope, here, between affirming both black life and police life.” MeanDoeMatterFactsFeelingsPainBlackPresidentEffectsCitizensNegativePoliceBlueHearingBarackAppreciatedBlack Lives MatterPresident Barack ObamaAffirmingBlack Lives Author:Julianne Malveaux
“I'm not interested in details that might get someone into trouble. I'm more interested in generalities rather than the particulars, as a journalist would be. Names, dates and times don't interest me at all. I'm interested in feelings and emotions. Most people are game, once they realize that you're on the level as far as that's concerned and you're not about exposing them, then they feel quite free to talk about it.

“There have always been gangland-type areas in Nottingham - but what's really hit me hard is kids as young as eight are now carrying knives to school.

“Our feelings alone don't change what happens with the police, what happens in jail, what happens when someone tries to go to the welfare office, the unemployment office, or any kind of state agency where a criminal record comes up for prostitution.

“I am a person who feels guilty for crimes I have not committed, or have not committed in years. The police search the train station for a serial rapist and I cover my face with a newspaper, wondering if maybe I did it in my sleep.
