Honor Memorial Day

By Frederick R. Bedell Jr., Grand Knight of St. Anastasia Knights of Columbus Council #5911

Memorial Day is a time to honor all those who paid the ultimate sacrifice and gave their lives to keep us free. Many wars have been fought and many men and women have died defending what we all hold most dear. As a veteran, I ask all who can to attend the parades in your communities, and wave the American Flag for our brave who have served us, as they march by us. If you cannot attend these parades, please hang the American flag from home, businesses and offices with pride. And if you cannot not do this, please have a moment of silence and offer a prayer for all those that have served and are still serving with dedication to preserving freedom. May God Bless America and pray that we will all may be safe.

Leading Criminologist Heather Mac Donald: The Ferguson Effect Is Real and Deadly

 Leading Criminologist Heather Mac Donald: The Ferguson Effect Is Real and Deadly

By Robert Golomb

Heather Mac Donald spoke about her book, “The War on Cops”
at the February QVGOP Meeting

“My writings might have drawn the greatest amount of public attention to the term, ‘The Ferguson Effect’, but I am not the one who first used the term. Actually these three words were first coined by Sam Dotson, the chief of the St. Louis {Missouri} Police Department’’, said Heather Mac Donald, whom I interviewed in her upper east side Manhattan office.

Mac Donald, who, focusing mainly on the hot button issues of crime, race, policing and the criminal justice system, has authored two books, written dozens of articles for newspapers and peer- reviewed journals and has frequently appeared on CNN and Fox News, was referring to an article written by Dotson for the St. Louis Dispatch in October 2014 – 3 months after the fatal shooting of 18 year old African American Michael Brown by Ferguson County Missouri Police Officer Darren Wilson.
