Summary
In Rise of the Warrior Cop, Balko shows how politicians' ill-considered policies and relentless declarations of war against vague enemies like crime, drugs, and terror have blurred the distinction between cop and soldier. His fascinating, frightening narrative shows how over… a generation, a creeping battlefield mentality has isolated and alienated American police officers and put them on a collision course with the values of a free society.
