Law Enforcement Response to Future Domestic Terrorism

Introduction

Currently, the world’s attention is concentrated upon international Islamic-based terrorism. However, Chief Edwards recognizes that they are not the only terrorist threat in the country and to his city. History has demonstrated that, aside from 9/11, domestic, non-Islamic terrorists have killed many, many, more people than Jihadists. The chief wants a briefing on the following topics related to these non-Islamic terrorist groups.

As the captain of your local police municipality, investigate non-Islamic based terrorist groups, focusing on recommendations in the literature for addressing these groups and the threat they pose.

For your initial discussion post:

• Illustrate two domestic, non-Islamic terrorism groups that pose a continued and future threat to the U.S.
• Identify an emerging or new law enforcement tactic for mitigating the threat each group poses.
• Predict the impact the identified mitigation tactic will have on law enforcement, terrorist groups, and society.
