Sounds great. However, I do not understand what you are asking when you state "Is there anything that might pop up in police screening?" as a follow up to the prior question. If you could rephrase the question, I will answer it the best I can.

Is it unfair that NYPD cops make as little as $30,000 per year, whereas in my town there is a small PD where they each make more than $100,000 and the chief makes more than Ray Kelly? (Never violent crimes in my town. And its not because of them.)...

Fair is a BS concept typically used by people who covet what other people have. Life isn't fair. Life is about choices.

If a person wants to work for NYPD, they know what the job pays going into it. If a potential applicant wants better pay, they will go elsewhere. If the citizens of New York want the best possible people applying to be police officers then they will offer more competitive salaries.

If a former co-worker posed as me and hacked my 401k and savings account ( after I was laid-off ) from a former employer, should I call the police or a lawyer? I don't know if they have stolen anything or not yet as I cannot get into my own account.

Between police officers, is it frowned upon to violate a persons fourth amendment rights? or is there a "he was guilty anyways" attitude?

Asked by JOHN over 12 years ago

It's not frowned upon; it is illegal. Anyone that has a "he's guility of something" attitude has no business being in law enforcement.

Hi, please my question is how does the responsibilities of the FBI influence the economy? Thank you.

Asked by Emmanuel over 12 years ago

I imagine the FBI has only a slight impact on the US economy. It sounds like you have an interesting topic for research though.
