  • Two Years Ago, Found Was Steve Mcqueen's Iconic 1968 Ford Mustang GT
    Two years ago, found was Steve McQueen's iconic 1968 Ford Mustang GT. Only traces of its original highland green paint job remained as it had sat unnoticed in a backyard in Mexico for years. Collectors had been searching for it for decades. Of course, this is not just any old '68 Stang. This was one of the original cars used in the classic Steve McQueen film "Bullitt," a film that defined "cool" for a generation of Americans. McQueen was Hollywood's "King of Cool" for a reason. In his role as the detective Frank Bullitt, he literally flies his car through the streets of San Francisco in what is regarded by many as the greatest car chase scene in cinematic history. Steve McQueen was not cool because he drove the Bullitt car. The Bullitt car was cool because Steve McQueen drove it. At the time, Steve McQueen was the number-one movie star in the world, and he is still used as a point of reference for masculinity and "coolness" to this day. He was (and is) the definition of an American icon. Yet, until late in his life he struggled to find meaning in life, and he suffered because of it. It might have been because he was born into a home of an alcoholic mother and a father that left him early in life, but eventually he found himself on the wrong side of the law more than once. He was arrested several times as a teen and sent to truancy homes for rebellious kids. He served in the Marine Corps, where he demonstrated both valor and rebellion.

  • The Image of Police Officer As Emerging from Road Movies and Road Lingo
    ZESZYTY NAUKOWE UNIWERSYTETU RZESZOWSKIEGO SERIA FILOLOGICZNA ZESZYT 51/2008 STUDIA ANGLICA RESOVIENSIA 5 Grzegorz A. KLEPARSKI, Magorzata MARTYNUSKA THE IMAGE OF POLICE OFFICER AS EMERGING FROM ROAD MOVIES AND ROAD LINGO Road movies: The roots of the genre American society holds many things to be dear – indeed one might say that, becoming to such a heterogenous notion these notions are equally varied. However, one might define a number of values which are commonly held to be of great importance to America as a whole, such as mobility, independence, fairness, individualism, freedom, determination and courage. These values are best encapsulated in the film genre known as ‘road movies’, through which Hollywood has sought to celebrate the very nature of Americanness. The purpose set to the pages that follow is to outline the concept of freedom as the guiding force of the characters in the road movies and – in particular – the role and the concept of POLICE OFFICER who either turns out to be a constraint on freedom or – on rare occasions – its facilitator. The second part of the paper concerns the trucker language, and – more specifically – the picture of the POLICE OFFICER in the language of CB radio. In particular, we shall analyse the linguistic mechanisms involved in shaping the concept discussed; that is the working of the devices of zoosemy and metonymy. From the very outset, it can be observed that right from the very origins of settlement in the New World, the first Americans were always connected – in some way – with the road and the concept of travelling.1 The early settlers were pioneers wandering westwards; crossing wide stretches of land, constantly on the move in search of a place to live.

  • Pursuits Liability in Law Enforcement Operations Presented by Public Agency Training Council
    Pursuits Liability in Law Enforcement Operations Presented By Public Agency Training Council FBI Law Enforcement Bulletin “Perhaps the most compelling, ongoing, and logical reason for law enforcement’s continued interest in high-speed vehicle pursuits has been its concern in balancing the values of crime control and offender apprehension with ensuring the safety of all parties who potentially might be involved – police officers, suspects, victims, bystanders, and the community” This balancing test has formed the cornerstone of pursuit policies, training, and practice for the past several decades. Police Pursuits Police Pursuits provide some frightening statistics: - The majority of police pursuits involve a stop for a traffic violation - On average one person dies every day as a result of a police pursuit - Innocent third parties, constituted 42% of persons killed or injured in police pursuits - 1 out of every 100 high-speed pursuits = fatality Officer Goals - To apprehend and arrest the suspect - When Officer initiates an enforcement stop, the suspect if he flees, initiates a pursuit - Officer must now respond with a balanced and reasonable approach, while the suspect has no rules - Officer must take into account personal capabilities, environmental conditions, - risks created by suspects driving/ bystanders Risk/ Benefit Analysis Ultimately the Officer must balance the goals of law enforcement (Necessity of continuing the pursuit, capturing the suspect) with the public’s overall safety Officer Response to Suspect’s Refusal to Stop The need “To Win” via making the arrest can be influenced by the adrenaline rush – which may negatively impact an officer’s vision, hearing, motor skills, and decision making.

  • Car Chase As an “Attraction”: Comparison Between Point-Of-View Shots in Bullitt and the French Connection
    Title Car Chase as an “Attraction”: Comparison between Point-of-View Shots in Bullitt and The French Connection Author(s) Hasegawa, Koichi Citation Journal of the Graduate School of Letters, 3, 69-75 Issue Date 2008-03 Doc URL http://hdl.handle.net/2115/32412 Type bulletin (article) File Information HASEGAWA.pdf Instructions for use Hokkaido University Collection of Scholarly and Academic Papers : HUSCAP Journal of the Graduate School of Letters,Hokkaido University Vol.3;pp.69-75,March 2008 69 Car Chase as an “Attraction”: Comparison between Point-of-View Shots in Bullitt and The French Connection Koichi HASEGAWA Abstract:Many Hollywood blockbusters have been recreated as popular theme park attractions. What is the similarity between action films and these attractions? It is that they directly address the audience/participants, implying that both action cinema and attractions set out to provide them with bodily thrills. This viewpoint was first presented in a seminal essay,“The Cinema of Attractions,”written by film historian Tom Gunning;it characterizes early films as emblematic of a type of cinema that showcases spectacles as sheer entertainment rather than one that tells a story. In this sense,action cinema that aims to address the audience directly may be referred to thrilling action films and the rise of such films is a notable phenomenon in present-day Holl- ywood. Car chase scenes are one of the keys to interpreting this phenomenon because almost a ll action films incorporate them as a strong draw. Hollywood’s contemporary enthusiasm for car chases began in the late 1960’s,when two car chase movies―Bullitt and The French Connection ―released a few years apart became smash hits.

  • How Will I Be Judged by a Court of Law If Someone Sues Me for Using Excessive Force?” That Is a Fair Question from a Law Enforcement Officer
    Part I: Introduction “How will I be judged by a court of law if someone sues me for using excessive force?” That is a fair question from a law enforcement officer. This chapter focuses on the legal aspects for using force in the course of effecting an arrest, investigatory stop, or other seizure of a free citizen. The leading case on use of force is the 1989 Supreme Court decision in Graham v. Connor.1 The Court held, “…that all claims that law enforcement officers have used excessive force – deadly or not – in the course of an arrest, investigatory stop, or other seizure of a free citizen should be analyzed under the Fourth Amendment and its objective reasonableness standard…” A seizure occurs when a law enforcement officer terminates a free citizen’s movement by a means intentionally applied. Traffic stops, investigative detentions, and arrests are all Fourth Amendment seizures. To seize someone, an officer may yell “Stop!” The officer may use handcuffs, a baton, or firearm to make him stop. A seizure must be objectively reasonable – meaning reasonable in its inception, the degree of force used, and its duration. This chapter focuses on the degree of force an officer may use. The Fourth Amendment chapter discusses when, and for how long someone can be seized; but they all go to the overall question – was the seizure reasonable? Mr. Graham was a diabetic. He felt the onset of an insulin reaction on day, called his friend Berry, and asked for a ride to a convenience store. Graham hoped to buy some orange juice.
