Dispel fear of police in the i
The Rev. Clifford Florence
It has been said for a nation, city, state or town to flourish and survive, its people must abide by the rules of civility. So, if the people of Rochester are to be held to that standard, so should the police officers.

Iraq 'police too corrupt'
The US Defence Department yesterday defended its efforts to rid the Iraqi national police of sectarian bias and corruption even as an independent review found the force too tainted to continue.
In a meeting with US President George Bush last night, leaders of the army, navy, air force and Marines discussed strains that are building on the force - and on troops' families - as a result of lengthy and repeated tours in Iraq.
Later in a statement Bush said he is committed to giving the military "all it needs to meet the challenges of this new century." He also asked Congressmen to reserve judgment about the best next move in Iraq until a report in two weeks from the US's top general and top diplomat there.
Iraq's Shi'ite Prime Minister Nuri Al Maliki said hardline Sunni clerics in Saudi Arabia share the blame for the bloodshed at a Shi'ite religious festival in Karbala because they issued religious decrees terming Shi'ites heretics.
His remarks appeared to suggest that security guards around the city's Imam Hussein and Imam Abbas mosques may have overreacted, fearing an all-out attack on the shrines by Sunni extremists when crowds of pilgrims approached chanting anti-government slogans.
Representatives from feuding Sunni and Shi'ite groups were meeting behind closed doors in Finnish capital Helsinki to discuss ways of ending the bloodshed in Iraq.
The Crisis Management Initiative, a conflict-prevention group headed by former Finnish President Martti Ahtisaari, said it was hosting a seminar to examine how lessons learned from peace processes in South Africa and Northern Ireland could be applied to Iraq.
