Untill we have real community policing, officers who know the neighborhoods, the people who live in it and actually live in the community they server, we will always have officers over reacting. I wonder what is the percentage of Portland officers who actually live in Portland. Hire people who live in the city they want to server. Teachers and police officers are 2 professions that need to be closely linked to their communities.
