Introduction
A controversial issue today in the American legal system is the justification of the use of force by police officers, given the actions and conduct of citizens. In this assignment, you will explore the requirements for use of force, constitutional rights pursuant to the Bill of Rights when it comes to free speech, and criminal defenses justifying actions.
Instructions
Write a 2-3 page paper in which you:
Specify the key requirements for police officers in determining the lawfulness of the use of force in making an arrest and what is meant by “reasonableness.”
Evaluate how free speech rights clash with the rights of others and the need for public order today.
Argue for or against the regulation of the First Amendment when it comes to speech that could or might incite “imminent lawless action or conduct.”
Analyze the defenses within today’s criminal law system.
Evaluate the fairness of the common law defense of necessity when citizens use deadly force.
Use at least three sources to support your writing. Choose sources that are credible, relevant, and appropriate. Cite each source listed on your source page at least one time within your assignment. For help with research, writing, and citation, access the library or review library guides.
Write clearly and concisely in a manner that is grammatically correct and generally free of spelling, typographical, formatting, and/or punctuation errors.

For your class project, you will write a descriptiveresearch proposal. Since this is a proposal, you will NOT conduct research, but you will write a proposal for research you are “hypothetically” proposing to conduct. We will work on this project in phases, throughout this course.
Before beginning this assignment, read the Module 1 Part 1 Power Point! 
Module 1 part 1 PP (assign 1 info).pptx
Research Question
You begin your research with a research question. It is best to write your research question as an open-ended question. To do so, start your question with “what is” or “what are.”
For this assignment, you need to submit the following pages:
Page 1: APA formatted “student” title page
Page 2: Write a research question (for a descriptive research project) for one of the topics on p. 10 (Box 1-1). This does not need to be the topic you will use for your proposal. You do not need to decide on your topic until Module 2.

How to Write the Research Question for this Assignment?

Remember to start your research question with “what is” or “what are.” You do not want to be able to answer your research question with yes or no.
Sample Research Questions for DescriptiveResearch (you must create your own):
What are the effective traits of police leaders?
