Answer the following statement(s) true (T) or false (F)

1. It is imperative that local law enforcement agencies assume some of the burden of responsibility for preventing and containing the risks of domestic and international terrorist incidents. 2. Local law enforcement agencies, because of their routine daily contact with so many people in the general public, could easily uncover terrorist activity in conjunction with their daily duties. 3. The USA PATRIOT Act allows for the detention of non-U.S. citizens suspected of terrorist activity for up to seven days without formal charges. 4. Local police officers are assigned to federal agencies (e.g., DEA, FBI, ATF, ICE) to make up a joint task force, but the main flaw with the system is that local police officers are not officially sworn to enforce federal laws. 5. The federal government must assume the lead role in responding to terrorism, but local agencies must assist in a concerted, multilevel effort.
