Communitarian Justice: Preventing Crime

From our friend Darren Weeks we got a link to DOJ's ongoing communitarian justice pilot tests. Not suprising is to learn the Weed & Seed program is still very much a part of the actual U.S. integration under EU Communitarian Law. The American system of law is based entirely on individual property rights; the communitarian system of law is based entirely in witchcraft. My first impression of the new crime "prevention" programs was of a high-tech soothsayer, and it hasn't changed. Here's a "sneak" preview of what's coming to a neighborhood near you:

"The hypotheses about community- and problem-oriented-policing are less focused than the others, so much so that some observers have even advised against trying to test them (Moore 1992: 128). " {Chapter 8-Community versus Problem-Oriented Policing}
