We agree with Councilmember Wesson that not every call our city leaders have asked us to respond to should be a police response, we are more than willing to talk about how, or if, we respond to non-criminal and non-emergency calls so we can free up time to respond quickly to 911 calls, crack down on violent and property crime, and expand our community policing efforts. – Tom Saggau	Found on CNN 3 years ago

Have you ever thought about the factors that help you come out of every odd situation in life? There are 3R's that can let you sail easily through every stormy situation of life. These are the response, responsibility, and responsiveness. The way you respond to the problem, the way you hold yourself responsible for it and finally the responsiveness you show in solving it matters a lot and let you drive out of the bad situation. – Prashant Agarwal	added by prashantagarwal 3 years ago

At a time when our nation is hurting the President continues to forgo any effort to calm tensions, as we had all hoped he would. Instead he used force to remove peaceful protesters to stage a photo opportunity. Instead of taking a moment of silence in front of the historic St Johns' Episcopal Church to pray for the lives lost he gathered his cronies to take a picture. Instead of doing the right thing, he once again did the absolute wrong thing, i have serious concerns about using military forces to respond to protestors. The role of the U.S. military in domestic U.S. law enforcement is limited by law. It must not be used in violation of those limits and I see little evidence that President Trump understands this fundamental premise. – Adam Smith	Found on CNN 3 years ago
Protests, for now, have been relatively peaceful compared with earlier in the week, and looting and fires are not as prevalent as they once were last weekend. Mark Esper ordered active-duty Army units to go back home after Mark Esper put them on alert in case they would be necessary to respond to the unrest in the D.C. metro area. But domestic political consequences are playing out just atthe mere mention of invoking the law. When you use military forces to do law enforcement its always politically fraught, theres always a political price to pay and its not the optimal use of the military. – Peter Feaver	Found on FOX News 3 years ago
Citizens could respond to all this and say our democracy is broken, election officials need to move now. – Paul Gronke	Found on Reuters 3 years ago

I've been struggling with how to respond to the President's tweets and posts all day.

We took 100 years to build this reputation as a science-based, impartial regulator. That's why everyone around the world trusts the The FDA, i get this is an emergency, and you need to respond to the public need, but we aren't using science. – Dinesh Thakur	Found on CNN 4 years ago
Right now, if you take southern Africa, sub-Saharan Africa, parts of Asia, South America and even parts of the Caribbean as areas that don't have the healthcare system to be able to respond the way one can respond in New York or L.A. or New Orleans or Chicago, we have really a moral responsibility for people throughout the world. – Anthony Fauci	Found on Reuters 4 years ago
Many a time when faced with an important question or a task, we take time to respond. We may feel that we need to understand all the implications well and address the matter at hand thoroughly. We may want to organize our thoughts before we deal with a critical query. So we delay responding until we can provide a precise reply. But we often fail to comprehend what the delay will signify to the mind of the person who posed the question or presented the task to us. They are more likely to feel that we are not giving enough value to their query. So we are taking our own sweet time to get back to them at our leisure. Thus, misunderstandings crop in. Collective human psychology is to deal with matters that are vital to us with urgency. More often than not, we postpone only those tasks that do not matter to us. Thus, if you delay responding, the delay might be construed as a lack of priority. If it matters to you, respond immediately. Even if only to explain that you will need time to come up with a precise answer. Avoid unnecessary misconstructions and be prompt with your responses. – Prashant Agarwal	added by prashantagarwal 4 years ago
What I've expressed, then and again, just my concern that if some areas, cities, states or what have you, jump over those various checkpoints and prematurely open up without having the capability of being able to respond effectively and efficiently - my concern is that we will start to see little spikes that might turn into outbreaks. – Anthony Fauci	Found on CNN 4 years ago
We need to face those claims and... respond to the expectations of the masses, how to live religiously in the 21st century. – Ahmed Abaddi	Found on FOX News 4 years ago

The Covid-19 crisis has shown that we are unprepared to respond( to this kind of crisis), outreach and engagement were slow, late, and did not reflect the diversity within the Asian American community. – Fue Lee	Found on CNN 4 years ago
Once again, The Supreme Court has thrown out federal criminal convictions of public officials who, by their own admission, abused their power for corrupt and illegitimate purposes, the harder question is whether Congress will respond to rulings like this one by expanding the scope of these laws, or whether we're going to end up with a world in which criminal liability for such nefarious conduct depends upon the color of one's collar. – Steve Vladeck	Found on CNN 4 years ago
One of the ways to respond to stress is to go for a walk, go for a run or do something active. – Matthew Messina	Found on CNN 4 years ago
