I agree with your suggestions for training.  Good training conditions lead to good sautomatic response.  

But I have to ask my friend just what kind of ramifications will a Trump Law and Order campaign be?  He wants law and order and wants it now. Does that fit what you hope for?    He's put the objective first and no comment on process(one of your strengths).    
I think liberal political policy condemns poor black neighborhoods to fear by not facing the violence.   That does not mean I want a suspension of civil rights- which I fear from the emotions of vengeance and personal power exhibited with Mr, Trump.  Should that worry me?
