Should an officer behave in a disruptive manner, make an offensive joke, or behave in an otherwise uncivil manner, even while off duty, community leaders, public officials, and the media react not only with disapprobation and censure, but even with surprise. Police officers are expected to be idealists. One often hears the expression 'jaded cop,' but when is a corporate executive ever disparaged as a 'jaded businessman?' A businessman whose moral sense has been fatigued or one who lacks compassion is not considered notable, yet a police officer is expected to have high ideals even though he or she confronts human nature at its most disillusioning every day. This is as it should be. As police officers are the keepers of civil order, they must exemplify civil behavior. Civil order depends less upon legal coercion than upon mutual respect and common ideals. Committed to the ideals of justice and truth, police officers must practice fairness and accuracy, even in their speech. Sworn to uphold individual rights, they must treat every individual with respect. A high standard of civil conduct is not merely a matter of community relations, but speaks to the essence of a police officer's role. By the same token, the public should treat police officers with the respect due those who must adhere to a higher standard of tolerance, understanding,moderation, and civility, even while working under extraordinarily trying conditions.

A businessman whose moral sense has been fatigued or one who lacks compassion is not considered notable, yet a police officer is expected to have high ideals even though he or she confronts human nature at its most disillusioning every day.

Some people argue that retribution is the purpose of punishment and that, therefore, the punishment must in some direct way fit the crime. This view is based on the belief that a person who commits a crime deserves to be punished. Because the punishment must fit the specific crime, the theory of retribution allows a sentencing judge to consider the circumstances of each crime, criminal and victim in imposing a sentence. Another view, the deterrence theory, promotes punishment in order to discourage commission of future crimes. In this view, punishment need not relate directly to the crime committed, because the point is to deter both a specific criminal and the general public from committing crimes in the future. However, punishment must necessarily be uniform and consistently applied, in order for the members of the public to understand how they would be punished if they committed a crime.

When members are assertive enough to say what they need to say directly to the appropriate people and to refrain from talking behind each other's backs, trust is enhanced.'
