Making the Invisible; Visible


I am addressing the issue of Police Corruption. Police have a duty in society to help and protect people at any time and at any place. Sometimes people do not get help or are not protected because of their race, ethnic group and others. But what is worse is that people are giving bribes for the police to leave them alone. The police take the money without a problem as there is a constant thrive for money. Maybe the reason there is a thrive for money is because people are not being paid enough. Corruption can affect society in so many ways; people think they can just pay their way through things. When people are let go like that then they think, if they get stopped again then they can just pay their way out. And they will not be worried about speed limits because if they get caught they can easily get away with it. I have out that in many cases police have been caught and charged with corruption, but instead of stopping they just continue again and some cops have been charged more than three times. I lose trust in the police and worries me that when I get stopped or if I get stopped that they will not stop until they get money which probably I don’t have. I have heard many stories of people being taken advantage of, which happen to anyone.
