Dropbox AssignmentAssignment 2: Library Research—Fusion Centers as a Law Enforcement ToolSince the terrorist attacks against the United States on September 11, 2001, there has been a real push in local law enforcement agencies—especially large ones—to incorporate intelligence-led policing techniques.A part of that strategy has been the creation of fusion centers in all fifty states intended to facilitate the sharing of police intelligence information between federal, state, and local agencies. Consider the Lambert (2010) article, “Intelligence-Led Policing in a Fusion Center” and the “US Government Accountability Office (GAO) Report on Fusion Centers” in the Webliography.The creation of fusion centers and their operations have not been without controversy. Many civil libertarians have expressed concern that instead of focusing only on real threats, fusion centers encourage the government’s suspicion toward law-abiding citizens and groups that are suspected of potential hostility toward government.Tasks:Write a 2- to 3-page paper. In the paper:•Take a definitive stand, with explanations, for or against the use of fusion centers as a local law enforcement tool.•Discuss how these centers may be abused to violate citizen rights.•Explain the difference between the cooperation that occurs through fusion centers and that through other kinds of multiagency activities, such as task forces and joint investigations.•Identify and discuss the possible steps or policies to minimize concerns that some have raised about potential abuses.Feel free to do additional research on the topic of fusion centers, beyond the reading that has been assigned to further improve your paper.Submission Details:•Save the report as M4_A2_Lastname_Firstname.doc.Assignment 2 Grading CriteriaMaximum PointsJustified the stand for or against the use of fusion centers as a local law enforcement tool.12Analyzed and explained the potential use or abuse of fusion centers with regard to violating citizen rights.28Analyzed and explained the differences in cooperation between the fusion centers and multiagency activities.28Discussed the steps that the police may take to minimize concerns of potential abuses through fusion centers.12Wrote in a clear, concise, and organized manner; demonstrated ethical scholarship in the accurate representation and attribution of sources; and displayed accurate spelling, grammar, and punctuation.20Total:100:

Big Time Toymaker (BTT) develops, manufactures, and distributes board games and other toys to the United States, Mexico, and Canada. Chou is the inventor of a new strategy game he named Strat. BTT was interested in distributing Strat and entered into an agreement with Chou whereby BTT paid him $25,000 in exchange for exclusive negotiation rights for a 90-day period. The exclusive negotiation agreement stipulated that no distribution contract existed unless it was in writing. Just three days before the expiration of the 90-day period, the parties reached an oral distribution agreement at a meeting. Chou offered to draft the contract that would memorialize their agreement. Before Chou drafted the agreement, a BTT manager sent Chou an e-mail with the subject line “Strat Deal” that repeated the key terms of the distribution agreement including price, time frames, and obligations of both parties. Although the e-mail never used the word contract, it stated that all of the terms had been agreed upon. Chou believed that this e-mail was meant to replace the earlier notion that he should draft a contract, and one month passed. BTT then sent Chou a fax requesting that he send a draft for a distribution agreement contract. Despite the fact that Chou did so immediately after receiving the BTT fax, several more months passed without response from BTT. BTT had a change in management and informed Chou they were not interested in distributing Strat.
At what point, if ever, did the parties have a contract?
What facts may weigh in favor of or against Chou in terms of the parties’ objective intent to contract?
At the end of the scenario, BTT states that it is not interested in distributing Chou’s new strategy game, Strat. Assuming BTT and Chou have a contract, and BTT has breached the contract by not distributing the game, discuss what remedies might or might not apply.
