I think that the most important ethic check is think then act . I think that that is the most important because if you don’t think before you act then you could end up hurting your self or someone else

1.) I think that number 7 is the best artical
2.) I think number 7 is the best artical because if you set your ethical decisions high then you will set your life goals and school goals high. Like to make good greats, make good choices, etc.

I think the most important "ethic check" is number 6 because you should always think about the effect that your decisions will leave on your life.

1.) I think that number 6 is the best article. Think, then act. 2.) When officers make mistakes they are usually not thinking. When you are not certain what to do, stop to consider your options.

1) I believe that the most important ethic check is number 1 : the when/then game. 2) I believe it is the most important because the game prepares the officers for potential ethical dilemmas.

1) in my opinion, I believe that rule #6 is the most important ethic rule.
2) reason is because you should always consider your options before acting out. it goes in hand with the quote “think before you speak”. as humans, we tend to do what we want to do rather than doing what’s ethical. we make rash and quick decisions which leads to bad choices and consequences.

1. I like the ethical pre - planning, because I read it and it stood out. This, I think, is a good idea when going to a line o work.
2. I feel that if your plan is well thought - out, it will make it easier when put into that position

1.) Article 9 was the most important “ethic check”
2.) Article 9 is the most important because making the personal decision to act ethically proves that you have good ethics even when no one else expects it out of you.

I think the most important ethic check are #1 because we have to plan first for our career so that it might be easier for us when we are really in that job.most officers did not plan about their ethic and they always ended up to quit their job in they end.

Think then act. Too many times in modern day policing has a cop acted before fully thinking his actions out. This has resulted in lawsuits, injuries to others and themselves, even the death of a suspect or the cop themselve.

1. Number 9 or article 9 was the most important “ethic check”
2. Number 9 or article 9 was the most important because us making a personal decision ,depending on ethics, shows wether or not we have it. if we show we have ethics then that’ll not only build our character but it’ll gain trust from others.

I think that number 6 in the ethic check is most important because 9 times out of 10 if you think before you act then you will make an ethical decision.

1) I believe #6 is the most important ethic check 2) Most people do not think when they are to be put under pressure in unexpected situations. So thinking then acting would seem to help most of the unethical choices and careless mistakes made by police officers.

1) I believe the most important ethic check is #9 Make the decision to act ethically. 2) The reason for this is because mostly all the other checks could help you to be ethical but that doesn't mean you'll follow through. If you make the decision to act ethical then you don't have to worry about making a wrong choice. For example you may be in a fast situation where you don't have time to think long and hard so if you always make the decision to be ethical then by habbit and routine you don't have to worry about making the wrong decision.

1) I think number 6 is the most important.
2) Thinking before you act is always important to do especially if you’re in law enforcement because you’re a role model to people and it’s important to know what you’re going to do before you actually do it so you know what’s going to happen.

1. I think article 8 being a role model is the best
2. The reason is because young officers are going to make mistakes so it's good to have experience officers or senior officers that's no the best way to do the job they can teach youths method that they learned

I think that number 6 is the most important because if we don’t think carefully we can mess up and then it’ll be too late and if we think before we act we can think of the consequences of our actions

1) #6 is the most important “ethic cheak” in my opinion.
2) “Think, then act” is very important because this could stop most of the misconduct that happens, especially for people that have somewhat of a temper.

1. I believe number 6 is the most important ethic check.
2. it’s important for police officers to think before they react because most of the times they react before making the right decision and end up in trouble or making a mistake. It’s better to think of what to do first than to react fast and make a mistake.

I think number 3. Consider the consequences would be the most important, because typically when people think about what can happen to them they tend to avoid the things that can bring about the bad consequences.

1. I think number 6 is most important because you should always think before you do something 2. You always need to think before you react, many times doing things without thinking can get you in bad situations. You need to make the right decisions and yes at times you will feel like you’re under pressure but it is important for a police officer to be able to make the right decisions in the hardest times

1)I think the most important article is #3
2)Because Police Officers think they can get away with saying sly remarks and comments bit that's not ok at all and they do have to be held accountable for their own behavior and just like police brutality that is very serious and many don't loose their jobs over it the whole situation gets brushed off like it's not a huge deal and I just think they should "Consider The Consequences".

1) i think number 7 is the most important ethic check
2) i believe this because I think that everyone should have high ethics, not just as a cop but also as a person... I also think that not having good ethics can stop you from doing the best person you can be. Good decisions take you good places in life.

2.) That specific article is important Because you have to consider the consequences in everything we do, it doesn’t just change in Law. In fact since police offficers are looked higher upon we have to act responsibly
