An argument has started about the infamous officer Hagop, who wanted to send Raffi 'home' (see R.'s logs).
Is Hagop personally responsible for the corruption of the system?
Police corruption is gang practice, proceedings shared by superiors. Hagop might not be the brains of the operation, but by perpetuating the crime he carries full responsibility as everyone else in the gang.
The Armenian Parliament had The Issue on its agenda this week. We were under budget and shady economy is to blame.
How to change the situation?
I believe in changing one person at a time. Follow Raffi's example, don't accept and 'understand' police practices.
Some advocate for more radical approaches.
Whatever method we choose the change has to become from within, from us, people living in Armenia.
So if you have to read/ write/ publish/ circulate log entries, please do the negative along with the positive.
Focus of the negative is hurting the country more than helping it.
Let's not tolerate corruption on any level, but let's see what's new, what's building, and what's growing. We don't want to become our own worst enemies.
