This research paper: 10 pages in length. At one time police officers were well-respected, well-trained components of society whose only objective was to uphold the law. The held authority to address a given situation with the proper and appropriate discipline – verbal, physical, incarceration or otherwise – and they were supported by the whole of law enforcement administration. Modern day police, however, face an entirely different approach to the very same job, given the fact that they are openly ostracized, disrespected and held accountable by the very people they risk their lives to protect. If they are not stepping between the pettiness of feuding neighbors or breaking up the illicit activity of twelve-year-old latchkey kids, then they are playing the role of welfare sympathizers in an already-overwrought social work system. Moreover, they have become powerless in dealing with unsavory elements of criminal perpetrators because the ever-growing trend toward protecting the offender at the expense of society as a whole has become a tremendous foothold in their ability to do their jobs. In essence, contemporary police have been effectively trained in the physical nature of law enforcement and taught the fundamental principles of laws that govern a civil society, but what their job amounts to in today's society is nothing short of glorified social workers.
