Uncle Biao asked everyone to discuss whether to hire a security company or form their own militia, and the people who came to the meeting immediately divided into two factions and put forward their own representatives to list their reasons, and I listened carefully from the audience. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

The main concerns of those who support the formation of self-formed militias are twofold. One is that security companies may not do their best when there is a disruption like this one. Another concern is that the current economic situation is not good, everyone's income is declining, and the cost of hiring a security company is too much at this time. This is indeed a problem, the barley field community is such a large area, there are fewer security guards hired to control it, and the residents cannot afford to hire more security guards. But I've thought of this for a long time, so I'm just keeping quiet.

The main reason for the support of employing a security company is that the militia is not effective in combat and lacks unified command. They also pointed out that if it weren't for our gang, the residents of the Barley Field community alone would not have been able to resist the mob's attack.

Both factions had good reasons, and neither could convince anyone, and they fought hard from the beginning. I glanced at Uncle Biao, who nodded at me and was ready to suspend the discussion and let me come to the stage to announce my plan.

As soon as Uncle Biao walked to the table, a thirty-year-old Asian in a suit and meticulously groomed hair was squeezed out of the crowd, and he shouted, "I ask to speak!" ”

Uncle Biao was stunned for a moment, and then said loudly, "Now please Harrison. Mr. Luo speaks! ”

The man, surnamed Luo, carefully climbed onto the table, straightened his back, habitually straightened his tie, and then took the electric horn and cleared his throat before he began: "Neighbors, it is undoubtedly shocking that such violence has occurred in this great country. But we can't let it destroy our faith in law and order......"

This guy talked eloquently about the importance of law and order, and it directly made me dizzy. I asked Wood, who was standing on the side, "What does this guy do?" ”

Wood whispered, "Lawyer." ”

Oh, no wonder you can't talk about it. But what is he talking about? He was talking about convincing people that the riots that had just happened were accidental, and that the people should put pressure on the parliamentarians to avoid such incidents in the future. At this time, can he still say such things and be kicked in the head by a donkey?

“…… Can security companies or community-organized militias be stronger than the police? And it's not a good choice to counter violence with violence. We've hired security companies or organized militias, and others will attack us with more force. So we should still rely on the police to protect the community! If you believe me, I can petition the mayor as a representative and ask him to increase the police presence and protect the citizens. If he doesn't act, we'll put pressure on the parliamentarians to remove him! ”

After Harrison shouted, there were some people who really muttered quietly. I was worried that someone would be tricked by him and not see the situation clearly, so after Harrison had finished speaking, I jumped on the table and took the electric speaker and said, "Hello everyone, I'm James. Plum. I want to remind you that Attorney Harrison just now overlooked a fact. You should be able to feel that the law and order situation in the city has become worse and worse in recent years, and I wonder if you know that the number of police officers in Lavona was more than 10,000 at its peak, but now it is only about 7,000. Isn't it clear that such a police presence is not enough to maintain normal order, and that the mayor and city councillors do not know? Why is there a decrease in police presence? ”

My words immediately made people look at me. I paused deliberately before adding, "Because Lavona's finances can't support so many policemen anymore!" Even the police officers who are still on the job are complaining that the pay is too low and the working environment is too dangerous. So in the future there may be fewer police! This is not alarmism! Will the mayor and lawmakers be able to conjure up more money to keep the police on the scale of the police as the tax revenues are further reduced and the funds to keep the government running will be strained? If mayors and legislators had the ability to do this, there wouldn't be so many bankrupt cities in the United States! ”

Many people nodded their heads again and again. Depend on! I haven't said that many of these limited police forces are deployed in places such as Financial Street, and other places can only be sprinkled with sesame salt. Seeing that people were starting to prick up their ears, I continued, "So, for a long time to come, when there is chaos, we have to rely on the community itself to protect ourselves until someone comes to our rescue." Therefore, we must have the ability to protect ourselves for a period of time. Right! ”

Most of them nodded in agreement, and a few young people shouted, "That's right! ”

"Whether it's hiring a security company or organizing a militia, there are advantages and disadvantages," I said. This is already clear to everyone. Is there a way for us to complement each other's strengths? I think there is a way! ”

At this point, I deliberately paused again to draw attention. When I saw people's eyes glaring unconsciously, I launched the plan that I discussed with Uncle Biao. "I think we can start a security cooperation organization! Specifically, the organization consists of a security company and militia-like community security associations. This militia-like community association is formed voluntarily by the residents of the community, whose members train the militia in their spare time and come together to defend the community in the event of an emergency. The security company usually provides the backbone of community security, conducts community safety planning, and provides training for association members. In times of crisis, the backbone provided by the security company leads the members of the association to defend the community according to the plan. In this way, because the security company only needs to provide a small number of backbones, the number of people is not large, and the burden on the community residents is not large. In the event of an emergency, the backbone provided by the security company provides guidance, coupled with the usual training, and the community members have enough combat effectiveness to protect themselves. What do you think? ”

As soon as I finished speaking, someone shouted, "Tell me more!" ”

I went on to explain: "For example, in this community, if the security association can have a few hundred people participating, the security company will take turns to train these people in shooting, fighting, and other necessary training, and help them to organize and choose the right weapons to reach a level where they can fight effectively. In addition, according to the situation of each person, elite personnel can be selected from the members of the association to form a relatively strong fighting force. In the event of an incident, the combatant force and the security company's resident personnel in the community can support others in their mission to defend the community. Since most of the security work can be done by the community themselves, ideally only 10 full-time staff from a security company would be required to patrol, install and maintain security equipment, and the burden on the members of the association would be greatly reduced. ”

To add to the temptation and to warn those who are free-riders, I add: "Since the whole community is one, of course the members of the association cannot only protect the safety of their own homes, but must also take care of the safety of the whole community." However, there are certain privileges associated with membership in the association. For example, we just went to collect supplies, and on the way back, someone shot at us and tried to steal the supplies. Without the guarantee of force, these supplies may not be brought back. In the future, there will inevitably be such a situation, and once this happens, the members of the association and their families who risk their lives to serve everyone have the priority to distribute materials! ”

At this moment, the people in the square began to discuss enthusiastically like a pot. At this point, I don't have to talk anymore. Anyway, it is impossible for any plan to involve everyone in this community, and I have made it very clear that when the materials were distributed just now, the people who contributed to the distribution were the ones who did first, and I believe that some people will see the benefits of participating in the association.

I got off the table, and Uncle Biao stood up: "Let's be quiet!" It's not too early, everyone listen to me first! I think Mr. Li's method is good, but now we don't have anyone here to handle this matter. If everyone can trust me Ah Biao, I'll do it first. If you are interested in participating in the cooperation, you can come to me to sign up, and we can discuss the charter. If you have any questions, you can also ask me to summarize them! Everyone as soon as possible, just in these two days! ”

I've walked some distance and turned around to see a lot of people around Uncle Biao asking this and that, it seems that there are many people who are enthusiastic about this matter.
