What Bastiat Had to Say about Police Abuse
Videos of citizen abuse at the hands of the police are everywhere. From the mainstream media to the courts, disagreement usually revolves around questions of the motivation, the character, and the behavior of police officers. But there’s a question everyone wants to avoid here: Are the laws themselves just? The state is using its monopoly on power to exploit the population, doing to society what members of society cannot do to one another.

Pasco police, Franklin County Sheriff dispute allegation of leaking information to murder suspect
A prosecuting attorney said in court Friday that there is “reason to believe” that members of the Pasco Police Department and the Franklin County Sheriff’s Office are suspected of leaking information to murder suspect Richard Aguirre, but Pasco police and the Franklin County Sheriff are disputing that claim. Aguirre is a former Pasco police officer accused of killing Ruby Doss in Spokane in 1986. He is currently held in the Spokane County Jail on $1 million bond on charges of first-degree murder and voyeurism.

Even with jobs, workers struggle to make good living
The U.S. economy is churning out a lot of jobs these days but not a lot of financial security for many of the people who hold them. Pay growth, though improving, remains tepid.

G-7 summit begins – again without Putin
Behind the tough talk on Russia expected from President Barack Obama and other leaders gathering in Germany this weekend is a stark reality.

Officers get enhanced training in mental health, substance abuse issues
Spokane police officers are working to replace naïveté with knowledge. They volunteered to go through more than 60 hours of training to help them better respond to crisis situations and work with people who have mental illnesses or struggle with substance abuse. About half a dozen mental health providers joined 13 officers for the same training. Officers say a better understanding of mental illness and local services helps them build rapport, act more compassionately and defuse tense situations. It’s called enhanced crisis intervention team training, or enhanced CIT, and is a step up from a 40-hour crisis training that nearly all Spokane officers have now received.

A tiny school district in Idaho far removed from law enforcement has purchased firearms and trained a handful of staff to use them should a school shooting rampage like others that have occurred across the country take place.
