Should I become a police officer? I live in a city of ~100,000 and the local department is looking for recruits and their training cycle is only 16 weeks. I want to join and become an upstanding officer to get rid of the bad image that the police has been getting these days. I believe that there are situations that could be resolved if proper training and communication was had, like pic related (and countless others), and that I would be able to stop other officers from improper use of force or other bad policing practices.
>Should I become a police officer?
No.
frick you homosexual dont, youll never get rid of the bad image, there are no "bad apples" you damnable zogbot- the barrel itself is evil. frick you homosexual
you’ll go into a psychopathic rage 5 Black folk into your career
You know that any agency worth their shit polygraphs and does data pulls from your phone and internet carriers right?
I wonder how an investigator would react to your post history...
you’re moronic if you think they spend their tax bux on shit like that
Not far off. My last application with a sheriffs department made me log into my social media on my phone then hand my phone over to them to look through. Luckily I haven’t posted on israelitebook since 2010.
Not homosexual OP. I'm going to apply to my local PD but, I smoked weed within the 3 years and did coke, I believe, within the 7 year window. I'm not that person anymore but, I know it will gravely affect my chances. Should I bring it up? The paragraph seems to the big boogeyman but im confident that I am a completely different person.
>I'm not that person anymore
Yeah, now you're a homosexual.
So lie then moron.
They’ll find out. Just wait and stop doing drugs moron.
No
Frick pigs
>small town
hopefully you wont be dealing with this at least
but that ass though
Ahh New Haven the literal butthole of the Americas
fascinating behavior, almost humanlike
I'm actually impressed by how much restraint these cops used dealing with these chimps
Escape from New York looks better and better every year.
Real shit, why not?
It's not like they're even remotely selective any more and the money isn't bad if you stay on for long enough to get rank and a lot of overtime.
>Real shit, why not?
You get shot.
Construction workers die at a higher rate.
No shit if you're doing man work somewhere outside of an office there are occupational risks. If you're really /k/, the idea of getting into a gun battle with some roody poo should be a perk.
I wouldn't work construction either. For real though most police are scum.
Then you'll be happy to hear better people are becoming cops and fixing some of the problems. You're not just mindlessly raging against masculine authority symbols, right anon?
>Then you'll be happy to hear better people are becoming cops and fixing some of the problems
Gonna need a source on that + Just because someone thinks they are a good person doesn't mean they are
meds
What a cop out response. Hahaha get it? Cop out. Seriously though you are a massive homosexual.
Hey my meds only work if you take yours. Don't forget to get your booster fren x
Cringe
what
Don't worry anon, nobody is going to confuse you with a good person. Good people try to fix things. You only tear down.
Man you really are asshurt aren't you? What do I tear down you literally don't know me. Calm down.
Lamo wtf is this shit better people are becoming cops?? Where? When?
it's an extremely safe job, except for your soul
at half the rate of pizza delivery drivers
Again I wouldn't do that job either.
There are like 10 more dangerous jobs than cop. Hell even as a cop you're more likely to die getting hit by a semi while giving a ticket on a highway than shot.
Most human deaths are boring, stupid accidents.
Do they actually polygraph recruits?
Polygraphs are bullshit.
Yes. But it’s the astrology test you should be anxious about.
Is it true accounting degrees are pretty good if you want into LEO
The other day I was talking to my neighbor and I found out she used to be an FBI agent.
She said it's mostly MBAs and CPAs because following the money is the most important part of the job by far.
You should join Uvalde police. You seem like that type.
The fun there is over. Schoolshooters don’t strike the same spot twice.
You know, I always wonder why it's school shootings and never like, congress or mayor's office or municipal court shootings. Like, you gotta know your life is over even if they take you alive, so why shoot kids when you can shoot up the government?
Take a look at the average thread on /misc/ and ask yourself if any of those morons posses the power to think critically, or do much of anything aside from violently lashing out because their brains are too rotten.
>/misc/ = bad
I think you'd feel more at home on reddit
or /k/. since you know, this is fricking /k/. You can crawl back to your /misc/hole now gay.
If you are OP, I think you have a terrible temperament to be a police officer. You are far to prone to anger, you actually seem somewhat unhinged. You wouldn't deal with the job stress well at all. Become an electrician, you'll make more money. You'll be less stressed and most importantly no one's life will be in your hands.
Kill yo self cracka ass honkey
Yeah its not bad. It can suck balls sometimes but its fun and you do get to help people sometimes
Only if you like spending your entire work week dealing with crackheads, urban youths, and white trash. Carrying a gun and wearing a uniform may sound fun, but remember the ghetto abyss will stare back into you. Unless you are already white trash, don't waste your life.
Make sure to wear that plastic body armor at all times, and when pulling someone over always have your gun drawn just incase they start shooting at you through their back window, and always have your left hand on your radio, if they allow it I would have an extended magazine on your carry gun
>I want to join
well if you want to join why would you ask the morons here their opinions
If your local police has a training cycle of 16 weeks, you need to fricking move.
maybe, but good luck finding a video where this happens with a white woman, especially the part where the one woman calls the woman her "sister" and then refuses to help the womans child
You're way too idealistic and naive.
>forced overtime
>chronic and critical understaffing leading to unsafe situations, or being overworked
>inability to separate work from home due to stress, trauma, and being 'on-call'
>relationship issues, you may feel partner doesn't understand you, can't be there for kids
>issues with management, could be micromanaging, too much paperwork, overbearing managers despite lack of support
>being scapegoated by brass for frickups or vindictive brass who go after officers
>politics
>constantly dealing with the worst of humans and accidents changing how you see others
>being injured
granted this isn't applicable to all PDs but talking to police officers it seems like this isn't all that uncommon either. there are also positives to being a police officer but they all mentioned the bad stuff to me first
if you can deal with all that shit then maybe you can then make changes for the better
>being scapegoated by brass for frickups or vindictive brass who go after officers
The shit you have to do to get anything worse than paid leave is absurd considering the de facto power you wield.
lmao always a bigger fish, just not the fish you think it was
Literally just don't end up on the national news and your livelihood will remain intact
Only reason I would consider it is because being a detective is fun
Except it aint.
>> t. been doing Homicide for the last 3 years
how do I get away with it
Highway patrol is better.
Be a goon for the state? The one who's eventually tasked to go and collect the citizens' guns? Frick no.
become a lawyer and deal with all the scumbags the cops have to deal with but get paid 100 X Times more and work your own hours!
Being a prosecutor is fr fr bussin, no cap. I pick the crimes I want to see go to court and watch those homosexual defense attorneys try to plea their client's way out of jail time. You want to make a difference in people's lives, fir good or bad? Get a law degree, cuz.
>t. Former county solicitor
do you happen to live in wa anon
>training cycle is 16 weeks
I guess that’s all the training you need to shoot people.
>be able to stop other officers from improper use of force or other bad policing practices.
The problem is if you try this the other cops will harass bully and get you fired because cops are buttholes.
Gotta join the KKK or the proud bois before they'll admit your pasty ass, homie.
gb2r
I don't need anything from /r/ right now, homeslice.
>Training cycle is only sixteen weeks
There's your fricking problem.
