Capital Punishment

*” A military jury has sentenced Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan to death for the 2009 mass shooting at a post clinic that killed 13 people and left 31 others wounded.” This is the worst mass murder at a military installation in U.S. history.
Do you support or oppose capital punishment in this case? Read other students’ posts and respond to them. If differences of opinion occur, debate and support your viewpoint professionally. Remember to support your statements with examples and references.

Logic Models as Policy Tools- Articulate how and why the use of Logic Models in program design and evaluation can mitigate the poor criminal justice policy-making examined earlier in the course.

DISCUSSION FORUMS:
Each module you are required to make at least one original post to the discussion
question in the ‘Discussion’ forum for that
week.
Initial posts must have at least two citations to class materials.
This week’s Discussion:
What are the practical challenges involved in the use of random selection and
assignment in action research? How can these be overcome?
Discussion Rubric:
Discussion assignments are designed to encourage interaction between the class
participants.
Superficial postings such as “I agree” or “Good point,” will not be counted. Direct use and
citation of course material is required in the initial postings and in
comments to classmates. Of
course, students should always be respectful of others
when giving their opinion(s). Below are a
few examples of acceptable and unacceptable posts/responses.
The best discussion posts and responses do more than merely recite
the materials. They analyze
and discuss what you have learned and pose questions for
your peers to discuss and wrestle with.
Take any stance or approach you like, so long as yousupport it with the materials and with
logical argument.
Acceptable Post: Sample ACCEPTABLE Post below:
Stohr and Collins (2013) discuss how competing values of ‘democratic accountability’
and
‘neutral competency’ change the motivations of workers, and thus need to be
balanced (40).
Which value do you think controls the most ground inside criminal justice organizations;
irrespective of culture, location, size, etc? On the surface this question is seemingly easy to
answer. Politics are never removed completely from civil service jobs because everyone working
within an organization has a political stance
and those stances shaped the individual’s values and
ideas, and subsequently the
dynamic of the organization itself.
Nonetheless, while democratic
accountability is imperative to civil service, especially in
law enforcement where the consent of
the people is an absolute, civil servants remaining politically neutral seems to only work for nonadministrative/management roles. Many
of those roles are either appointed of elected, and thus
they are already accountable to
the public vis-a-vis other democratic mechanisms. Thus, I feel
that democratic
accountability is the value that retains the most weight inside law enforcement
organizations because policy and directive operates in a top-down manner. While Lipsky (2010)
tells us that SLB’s exercise their discretion to either enforce or make their own
policy, the
internal dynamics of the organization are still shaped by politics. Stohr and
Collins even note
how organizations are highly influenced by the political will of the community (39). While neutral competency is still salient in terms of civil servants jobs not centering around politics, it
is still permeated to one degreeor another by politics and is affected by the local legal culture
and political environment they are in.

State and local agencies

For this discussion, you will consider and differentiate the role of state and local agencies within the context of homeland security objectives. First, identify and explain the contributions and strategic objectives of local law enforcement agencies within the context of homeland security. What are the most challenging aspects of coordinating state and local agencies with federal agencies? Why? Provide a specific example to illustrate your response. Reflect on the material in Chapter 6 of the Martin (2015) text on state and local factors within the context of homeland security. Second, and as a related item, analyze methods of the most effective state and local response systems in first responder contexts. Identify a strength and a limitation associated with a state and local response method of your choice. How could this method be improved?
The content of the initial post must contain a minimum of two references to the assigned weekly reading materials. No quotations are permitted. Your posts should incorporate analytical and evidence-based statements and reflect a synthesis of the assigned readings. Your initial post should be a minimum of 400 words.

Strategic, Operational, and Tactical Intelligence

Prior to beginning work on this discussion, please complete the assigned readings and access and review the required websites. During this discussion, you will examine the contributory roles of strategic, operational, and tactical intelligence in the prevention, mitigation, and recovery from domestic hostilities, threats, hazards and consequences. Thoughtfully consider the material in Chapters 5 and 6 of the Martin (2015) text and in Chapter 2 in the Steiner (2015) text. As Martin (2015) indicates, there are almost 90,000 state and local agencies that coordinate and contribute toward the advancement of homeland security objectives. As Martin (2015) also indicates, alignment and coordination efforts are highly involved propositions. Federal agencies provide funds and policy directives to support state and local efforts, and it is critical to note that in the event of contingencies, it is often the case that state and local agencies serve as the initial respondents (Martin 2015). The discussion questions for this week direct you to examine coordination and alignment between and among federal, state, and local efforts.
For your initial post, examine the composition of federal agencies prior and subsequent to the events of September 11, 2001. First, explain how federal agency structure changed after September 11, 2001. Incorporate specific examples. What stands out as the most critical change in federal agency structure? How have changes impacted interagency collaboration at the federal level? Second, and as a related item, identify and discuss how strategic, operational and tactical intelligence facilitate the prevention, mitigation and recovery from domestic hostilities, threats, hazards and consequences. Of the three forms of intelligence, which is most critical in terms of homeland security objectives? Why? Finally, argue for or against the merger of the Intelligence Community (IC), the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), and the Department of Homeland Security (DHS). Justify your view on whether the IC, DHS, and FBI should continue to coordinate their activities through interagency practices (that is, should they remain as distinct agencies). Or whether they should be merged into single agency.
The content of the initial post must contain a minimum of two properly cited references (in APA format as outlined in the UAGC Writing Center) to the assigned weekly reading materials. No quotations are permitted. Your posts should incorporate analytical and evidence-based statements and reflect a synthesis of the assigned readings. Your initial post should be a minimum of 400 words.
