Now that the War resolution matter seems to be mute, I think that we can move on to matters that have a more immediate impact on the city. If I recall correctly Chief Olson was urging the creation of an anti-terrorist unit in the Mpls Police Dept. In a pervious post immediately after 9/11 I supported such a unit, but I think that we need to be extremely careful to avoid violating our civil rights. How could we create a police intelligence unit that would help protect the city and the nation against terrorism and still insure our Constitutional rights?
