Explain the major problems impeding law enforcement's understanding of terrorism
What will be an ideal response?
• One of the reasons law enforcement has difficulty understanding terrorism is that it does not occur in most jurisdictions.
• American police officers do not spend a lot of time thinking about terrorism.
• They are faced with traffic accidents, gang problems, domestic disputes, and a host of tasks dealing with social order.
• Another problem is that, although U.S. law enforcement officers routinely deal with terrorism, they call it something else.
• Even the FBI labels the majority of domestic terrorist activities with common crime designations in the Uniform Crime Report.
• Closely related to this problem is that even after September 11 most domestic terrorism goes unnoticed.
• Another reason for the lack of concern is that recent terrorism developed slowly in America.
• Terrorism grew with radical groups beginning about 1965, and although there were some sensational activities, terrorists did not routinely target the United States until 1982.
