臨危受命的休斯敦警長


參加了週三下午的休斯敦西南及國際區之市民大會,有幸和新上任的市警察局局長菲尼見到面, 他在大會上和市民們交換了肺腑之言。


這個全美第四大城市,經過了新冠病毒之洗劫,可以說是百處瘡疾,今年預計至少有五百人以上被殺害。


位處於哈里斯群的能源大城,一年來更是湧進了許多合法或非法的居民,許多不滿加州重稅的工商企業紛紛往德州各大城市搬遷,眾多要到美國逃難的中南美洲難民,都已在休城紥根,因此,我們此地拉丁、亞裔、非裔居民已經成了多數人口,這種種族組合現象,彻底改變了生活和政治生態。


市民大會上情緒激動的市民對當地之治安敗壞表達極大不滿,亞裔是被搶劫最多的受害者,警力不足,反應時間過長,九月一日過後大家都可以帶槍上街,這些問題都想聽聽警長的意見,

當了三十一年警察的警長,是生於斯長於斯的本地人,他在講台上非常親切而又從容地表示,保護市民就如保護家人一般,他將帶領團隊重新分配和充實在各區之警力,主要是請他的同事和社區打成一片,他同意九月一日後的攜槍法令,將對警察構成巨大壓力和威脅。


今天在美國各大小城市出任警長是件非常吃力不討好的艱難工作,在全美各地反警察

暴力的大環境下,執法人員左右為難。


隨著疫情帶來的後遺症,對這位新任之警長是非常重大之挑戰,他對於加強和社區之合作是首要任務,其主要目的是做到警民一家親。





Welcome To The New Houston Police Chief Finner


There was a big crowd at the town hall meeting sponsored by City Councilwoman Tiffany Thomas yesterday when we all met the new Houston Police Chief Troy Finner.


Becoming the chief of police in the fourth largest city in the nation is not easy job. Houston’s murder rate is skyrocketing to over five hundred by end of this year.


Houston is located in Harris County and the population from Latinos, Africans and Asians has almost reached a majority because of the coronavirus pandemic, the economy was down until now. Many Californians are now moving to Texas, especially to Houston, Dallas and Austin.


In the town hall meeting, many residents complained about the crime in the southwest area, especially the criminals that are targeting Asian women. People also worry about the open carry gun issue that goes into effect after September 1 of this year.


Chief Finner answered all the questions and promised that his team will work more closely with the local community.


Chief Finner is a native Houstonian and has worked for the Houston Police Department for 31 years. His experience and community connections will make his working together with local groups much easier.   


Because of the nationwide anti-police violence atmosphere, it makes all the police chiefs’ jobs very difficult.


Houston is such a diverse city. In the different ethnic communities, the police need to treat all the citizens very equally. We all need to work together on the many issues facing our city. Otherwise, a growth in the crime rate will become a serious challenge for the new police chief.


We welcome our new Chief to serve our community. The Houston International District is ready to cooperate with our new leader.
