Herschel on the similarities between counterinsurgency and stability operations in Baltimore, and the same in Fallujah.
I understand that the Baltimore police would like to find who killed their man, but local police departments do not possess the authority to place the local citizenry into an "open air prison", complete with checkpoints and "show me your papers" requirements.
And if this neighborhood is so incredibly dangerous that these Fallujah tactics have become necessary, then please tell me why the murdered officer was walking through by himself in the first place? If there is an area of a city that is so terrifyingly dangerous, then stop sending your officers there, especially alone and on foot.
