The Nationalist (Republic of Ireland) 4/9/2023 News Policy Preferences Related to Police Use of Deadly Force: Exploring the Impact of Social Media Consumption and College Major Responses to high-profile uses of deadly force by police in the U.S. suggest a disconnect between police and the public in terms of the circumstances in which deadly force should be allowed. There have been limited efforts to examine how media consumption and individual characteristics influence policy preferences related to the use of deadly force. We fill this gap in the literature through application of survey methodology to a sample of 458 college students in the Southeastern U.S. Our findings reveal that a substantial proportion of respondents prefer highly restrictive policy, including that police should be required to first shoot a suspect in the leg even when deadly force is permitted under law. These perceptions are influenced, in part, by college major and social media consumption, net of the influence of personal characteristics and experiences, but the effects vary in direction and significance based on social media platform. Journal of Criminal Justice Education - Subscription at source 4/9/2023 Research article The Marshal said ‘get out of town!’ egressing the night time economy: perceptions of student end users in a Welsh city Some perspectives from environmental criminology have hypothesized that broader planning governance issues relating to the provision of public transport and taxis services as egress mechanisms may sometimes act to precipitate crime and disorder and exacerbate public safety issues. Utilising research findings from a study of regular users of the Night Time Economy (NTE) of Cardiff, this article examines the hypothesis that poor urban governance may precipitate crime, particularly the use of taxis as egress from the NTE space. This survey is the empirical basis of this paper. The findings, whilst not being completely representative, indicate the perceived importance of the role of taxis as facilitators for reducing anti-social behaviour and egress from the NTE by customers and end-users of this facility. Consequently, it is suggested that any reduction in the provision of such services may well increase the incidents of anti-social behaviour and disruption within the NTE, with a consequential increase in demand for services from police and other agencies.
