Cheating death and fighting communism: that is how a fellow officer once described our job. It was meant to be funny, but as time went on it seemed all too true.
I spent more than ten years in law enforcement, all of it on the street in uniform patrol. I've been a patrol officer, instructor, sergeant and lieutenant.
Do not report crimes here. Nothing here should be considered legal advice. All opinions are my own.
Unless your state has a law prohibitting it, yes. Most police officers have second jobs, and I've known a few that were real estate agents. As with anything, you just have to be clear not to mix the two and do any private work on the public's time.

Patrol - mostly in a patrol car. I'm assigned a section of the city as a patrol zone and I am responsible for all calls that come into that area. A portion of the time includes getting out on foot and walking through businesses, parks and apartment complexes, but most of my time is spent going from dispatched call to dispatched call via automobile.
No one really responds from the station (like a firefighter). Sometimes you might be there for paperwork or submitting evidence and then get a call, but it isn't normal procedure.

Trust your gut. Drug habits are tough. I'd recommend reaching out to some resources in your community that might be able to help you. You cannot make him quit, you can only protect yourself and your children (if you have any.) Good luck.

Can you rephrase the question? It sounds like you are asking me to tell you if there is anything in your background that might cause you problems in being hired. Without knowing you, that would be an impossible question for me to answer.
