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

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.

I'm not an expert on child behavior, nor on bullying. There is likely a lot of research on the topic that you can find via Google. I'd treat it all with a serious grain of salt though. A lot (most?) research is funded by groups with specific goals in mind.
I can tell you from my exeprience, which is not scientific at all and should not be taken as such, that behavior is largely learned. Kids imitate what they see, so both bullies AND victims are largely learned behavior. Unfortunately, many parents, schools and even society is teaching people that being a victim is morally superior than standing up for one's self. Sad really.

95% (or better) of the stuff you have learned about law enforcement in the movies or on TV is garbage. Movies are written, directed and acted by people who have no experience or first hand knowledge of law enforcement or crime.
Regardless of the type of crime - shoplifting to running a criminal enterprise - law enforcement officers can only arrest someone if probable cause exists. If this burden of proof does not exist, no lawful arrest can be made.

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.
