How to use police force in a sentence?

  1. Dawn Penich-Thacker:

    We need you to hold the department accountable, to show us your residents that you actually care that our police force is a national embarrassment for their failures and abuses and a menace to too many in our community.

  2. Maria Tam:

    The emergency legislation is something that is left behind by the colonial British government. It's nothing to do with the Basic Law. It's entirely in the power of the highly autonomous region, at the moment there are still plenty of tools. We have different articles in the police force ordinance and articles in the public order ordinance which we can still invoke to control the situation. We haven't got to the stage when we really have to engage in enacted laws by the chief executive with the executive council to, for example, enact anti-mask or interception of internet messages. We're quite a distance from that.

  3. Monica Klein:

    We are experiencing historic lows in criminal activity, murders and shootings are at their lowest in modern history. NYPD is the most effective police force in the country thanks to our officers' dedication and commitment to their job.

  4. John Katko:

  5. Matthew Luckhurst:

    His actions were a betrayal of every value we have in our community, and he is not representative of our great police force.
