YouTube Description
as posted by the channelThis clip shows what I tend to encounter in talking with people in private and governmental (national security, law enforcement in particular) organizational environments - This is the case even when people "ask for help". We have too many people in positions of authority who absolutely refuse to listen to anyone but themselves, who will resist all change initiatives, and who will justify their positions to the detriment of the people that they are supposed to be serving. As a society, we will never get better or solve any problems if this kind of nonsense remains the norm. The response in this video is sad, but true (and a bit humorous in this instance).
This channel covers impacting issues for law enforcement, national security, government dysfunction, public safety, societal risk, and institutional failure. No over-production, no AI, no rage. Please forgive our less "over-produced" approach. Please like, share, and subscribe to keep the conversation moving forward.
