...about in the media? This term did not exist before the 1980's. In my city police officers have to fill out what amounts to an anti "Racial Profiling" form every time they pull someone aside and chat with them about why they are in a certain neighborhood at a certain time, etc.. Something I've know cops to do for years.
Often potential perpetrators would change their mind about committing a crime because of these chats and move on. Now cops are bothered with extra paper work and sometimes even law suites for doing so. So they take a more hands off approach to crime prevention and focus more on law enforcement (arresting someone after a crime has already been committed).
Say were talking about the murder of a loved one, wouldn't it be nice to have someone intervene to stop the murder before it happens?
