Police Power

We seem to constantly bombarded with facts, figures and statistics on crime and punishment. Some indicate that the country's criminal activity is getting worse, whilst others suggest that we are tackling this issue with increasing success.

Events at the recent G20 protests once again raised the issue of police power and conduct. What should be done to address crime and deviance? Should the police be given more powers or does the answer to reducing crime and deviance lie somewhere else?
