"Community Matters" - 050

This episode of "Community Matters" is devoted to remembering the events of 9 -11 - 2001. It's been eight years since the attacks against our country which were the stimulus for the beginnings of the LA Community Policing efforts. The host of "Community Matters" is Bill Murray, founder of LACP, originally a New Yorker. His reaction to the 9 -11 terrorism were expressed in articles that eventually appeared on e-groups and then on his first-ever web site (this one). As time went on the reaction to the site was so overwhelming that LA Community Policing became a non profit organization (originally regional to LA only) and has long since been recognized as the world's biggest grassroots effort devoted to community-based policing.
