Chapter 1265 "Freedom", "Equality" And "Fraternity"

The two came to the parking lot. Jerry took Jiang Hao to two beautiful motorcycles. He raised his eyes to Jiang Hao, patted the motorcycle seat and said, "Harley-Davidson Electraltra Glide, isn't it very cool?"

Jerry's hand stroked the body of the motorcycle, as gently as stroking a woman's skin, and he muttered, "The texture of metal, the beautiful lines, the hot exhaust pipe, the deafening but musical roar, it is the perfect combination of power and freedom."

Jiang Hao smiled. Jerry's words were festive and exaggerated. He put the patrol tools in the box. Jiang Hao sat on it, started the engine, and twisted the throttle. The motorcycle made a "booming" sound.

"Dude, motorcycles are for riding, not for touching." Jiang Hao said, and the motorcycle rushed out with a buzz.

"Hey, Jon, wait for me." Jerry hurriedly got in the car to catch up.

Helmets, sunglasses, police uniforms, walkie-talkies, police motorcycles, speeding on the road at lightning speed, it feels good to not be afraid of speeding.

Now I am the only one who has to check on others, hahaha.

After a while of speeding, Jiang Hao stopped at an intersection. Jerry caught up a few minutes later and stopped beside Jiang Hao and said, "Dude, you are driving too fast. I dare not call you on the intercom, for fear that the command center will know that you are speeding."

"Just to get familiar with the performance of this car." Jiang Hao said with a smile.

Not long after, Jiang Hao and Jerry came to the block they were responsible for and began to patrol. As a qualified patrolman, they must be familiar with the various situations in their patrol area, such as the division of streets, the location of stores, the planning of residential areas, and even the division of local forces, various frequent crimes, etc.

After two laps around the jurisdiction, everything was relatively safe. Generally speaking, the daytime is relatively stable, and the night is the beginning of crime. The day and night in the United States are basically two different worlds.

It was almost noon, and the two wanted to find a fast food restaurant for lunch. At this time, Jiang Hao's intercom rang. The headquarters called. There were two reporters preparing to interview him, so Jiang Hao was asked to call the sheriff.

Jerry looked at Jiang Hao excitedly, "You haven't finished saving people yesterday. Look, another reporter is looking for you. I'm afraid they want to report on you in depth. Good news, you're about to become a big star."

Jiang Hao borrowed the phone of the fast food restaurant next to him and called the sheriff's office. When the call was connected, the sheriff told Jiang Hao that the bureau had agreed to NBC TV News's request to interview Jiang Hao. Two reporters will come to him in a while and ask him to say more good things about the police station.

"Don't worry, sheriff, I understand." Facing reporters was just a small scene for Jiang Hao.

Not long after, two reporters drove over, a female reporter and a male photographer. As soon as they got out of the car, the photographer raised the camera and aimed it at Jiang Hao.

"My name is Catherine?"

"Jiang Hao, you can call me Jon." Jiang Hao smiled and shook hands with the other party.

Jerry is a discerning guy. He also wants to be in the camera. He rolled his eyes and ran to the vending machine next to him, ready to buy a few bottles of drinks to bribe the reporters.

"Officer Jon, I'm going to interview you. When you saved people yesterday, did you think about your own danger? What made you make such a decision to choose to save people in the face of danger?" asked female reporter Catherine.

If it were in China, reporters would never ask this question, because the Chinese Police Law stipulates that the task of the people's police is to maintain national security, maintain social order, protect the personal safety, personal freedom and legal property of citizens, protect public property, and prevent, stop and punish illegal and criminal activities.

So the Chinese people naturally think that police all over the world have the obligation to protect the people.

Obviously, it is not.

The logic of law enforcement of American police is to protect their own safety first, subdue suspects second, and protect victims third.

When I was in the police school, the teacher said that the design of the American police system does not require American police to protect the people.

There was a case in the United States that shocked the whole country and even changed the laws of the whole country and states. In 1975, in a residential area a few kilometers away from the White House, several gangsters broke into a house and someone called the police. But in the next 14 hours, the police came several times, knocked on the door and no one opened it, so they all left again.

Several women were beaten, robbed and gang-raped. After 14 hours of torture, the robbers finally ran away.

The women finally took the police to court, but the Supreme Court ruled that the police had no legal obligation to protect the three of them. The three sued the police and lost the case. The whole country was shocked!

The explanation of the US Supreme Court is:

"The police's mission is to protect society as a whole, and there is no legal obligation to protect any specific citizen. Therefore, you, and only you, have the obligation to protect your safety, the safety of your family and the safety of your loved ones."

Since then, state legislatures across the United States have begun to fully delegate citizens' right to self-defense. Whether it is the blue states of the Democratic Party or the red states of the Republican Party, the right to self-defense and the right to openly carry guns have begun to be fully liberalized.

Jiang Hao has seen a data. Since 1986, there were 41 states that did not allow outdoor guns. By 2017, all of them had been liberalized. This is also one of the reasons for the increasing number of shootings in the United States.

Back to Jiang Hao, why did the reporter ask this question? It is because the police have no obligation to sacrifice themselves to save others, that is, there is no so-called humanitarian spirit. They are mechanical law enforcers.

But doesn’t America need humanitarian spirit?

No,

He needs it,

very much.

In many American movies, the most respected spirit is humanitarianism, fearless of danger, saving the dying and the wounded, and never giving up on the people.

Why act like this?

Because he lacks it.

Since ancient times, hasn't it been about making up for what is lacking?

Jiang Hao's act of sacrificing himself to save others embodies the humanitarian spirit, so reporters are willing to come and interview him.

Jiang Hao showed a warm smile on his face and said to the female reporter: "I have read many philosophical books. I advocate the humanitarian spirit. I advocate that people should be the first, caring for people, loving people, and respecting people. I am a policeman for this purpose. I will do my best to practice the creed in my heart, "freedom"! "Equality"! "Fraternity"!"

At this moment,

the sun shines down from the top of my head,

the photographer's angle is slightly low,

in the lens, Jiang Hao's figure looks extremely tall, and in a trance, a layer of golden light rises from his body, just like a priest descending.

At this moment,

The female reporter looked at Jiang Hao with a hint of respect. You can't help but respect a person with lofty ideas.

Yesterday's performance of Jiang Hao fully confirmed his own words. He is not a person who only talks big. What he said is very credible.

Jerry came back with 4 bottles of Pepsi cans in his hand. He walked in front of several people and happened to hear Jiang Hao's words. Jerry suddenly felt that his companion was so tall. As for the highway racing just now, that was a small problem. His noble spirit was worthy of his admiration.

I originally planned to take Jon to see XX dancers after get off work tonight. Now it seems that my thoughts are too dirty. How can I have such an idea?

No, I must not take Jon to that kind of place. I can't pollute his holiness.

Jiang Hao didn't know that Jerry thought so much at this moment.
