It’S Time To Replace Tsa’S John Pistole Because Of His Lack Of Conflict Resolution Skills, Christopher C. Cooper Dr.

Christopher C. Cooper Dr.

In order to be a solid Law Enforcement leader, one must possess excellent social skills. Included should be expertise in interpersonal conflict resolution. Yes, Pistole has an obligation to keep travelers safe; however, Pistole also has an obligation to guard children from being groped by TSA employees. Pistole has an obligation to allow men and women to be free from exploitation by TSA workers. Since we are country characterized by Democracy, Pistole has an obligation to do what the people ask when the request is reasonable. This obligation extends to all of our federal elected officials. Let us commend the …

The Problem Is A Combative Chief Of U.S. Airport Security, Christopher C. Cooper Dr.

Christopher C. Cooper Dr.

The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) head, John Pistole, has become known by many Americans this week because of his hard-line, inflexible stance that aggressive patdowns of airport passengers will not be modified. As incredulous, although we live in a Democracy, Pistole has implied wrongdoing on the part of the media for airing stories about the aggressive patdowns that are akin to molestation.

Yes, Pistole has an obligation to keep travelers safe; however, Pistole also has an obligation to guard children from being groped by TSA employees. Pistole has an obligation to allow men and women to be free from exploitation …

A Detroit Policeman With A Documented History Of Pointing Guns At Children, Shoots & Kills 7 Year-Old Aiyana Jones, But Not After A Fellow Officer Sets The Tiny Girl Ablaze With A Grenade. This Could Happen Again. Copyright © May 20, 2010, Christopher C. Cooper

Christopher C. Cooper Dr.

Is it every parent’s nightmare that the police will throw a grenade through the living room window striking their 7 year-old and then fire a bullet into the child’s forehead? Or is it, ONLY, some parents’ nightmare? I am willing to bet that there are communities in America in which the police would never throw a grenade into a home in which the officers have been told ad nauseum that there are children inside. If little Aiyana Jones was not 7 but 17, I would not have written this article because I would not have learned of her death nor …

Civil Rights Claims & Unaffordable Arbitration: Lack Of Employee Access To Arbitration, Christopher C. Cooper Dr.

Christopher C. Cooper Dr.

The decision by the New York Court of Appeals in Brady v. The Williams Capital Group, L.P., 2010 WL 1068163 (N.Y. Mar. 25, 2010) should cause us to note that some employer mandated arbitration agreements not only take away an employee’s right to sue the employer in court, but as well, impose arbitration costs\expenses on the employee. The employee who lacks funds is unable to make use of the arbitration process. An arbitration provision is not rendered inherently unconscionable because some of the arbitration costs will be imposed on the claimant. See Zobrist v. Verizon Wireless, 354 Ill. App. 3d …

Broken U.S. Police Culture And Lack Of Police Temperament Explain The Infamous Gates-Crowley Encounter, Christopher C. Cooper

Christopher C. Cooper Dr.

Any knowledgeable cop can tell you that Dr. Gates was moments away from being tasered or shot. And, that but for Henry Louis Gates’ friendship with the president of the U.S., he would have been just another statistic. When a citizen dares to disagree with an officer—he or she goes to jail. Astonishingly, the prosecutor and the judge and the whole criminal justice system accept the officer’s false account of events and probable cause. And, it happens again and again, but perhaps not anymore---maybe now with less frequency because of an encounter between a small-city cop and a renowned university …

Yes Virginia, There Is A Police Code Of Silence: Prosecuting Police Officers And The Police Subculture, Christopher C. Cooper

Christopher C. Cooper Dr.

Successfully prosecuting police officers for police malfeasance represents formidable challenges. These challenges are not impenetrable. Prosecutor attention to the secrets of the Code of Silence, many of which are on public display, thanks to generous leaks, is an absolute necessity. This author has encountered and interacted with prosecutors as a Police Officer (in particular as a policeman in Washington D.C. [Metropolitan Police]) and as a Plaintiff’s attorney. The one thing that he noticed as a cop and continues to notice (now as a practicing civil rights attorney) about attorneys who defend or prosecute police officers is that most attorneys have …

The Eeoc Is Representative Of The Highest Degree Of Incompetence, Christopher C. Cooper

Christopher C. Cooper Dr.

ABSTRACT (C) COPYRIGHT, ALL RIGHTS RESERVED TO AUTHOR. JANUARY 2009. DO NOT COPY WITHOUT PERMISSION FROM AUTHOR BY PROFESSOR CHRISTOPHER C. COOPER, JD, ESQ., PHD., Civil Rights Atty. Age, race, sex, and disability discrimination, among others, is perpetuated by the inept U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC). EEOC investigations are usually incomplete and deficient. The EEOC admits that it can’t investigate all of the cases filed with it. It has set an objective for 2009, investigating [within 180 days] 54% of the cases filed with it. This dismal prediction means that the abominations by the EEOC continue and once again, …
