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.

Hi I want to get a family member out of my house because she is creating problems in my relationship with my husband but she doesn't want to leave.

Contact your local depaerment and inquire about forcing her to leave. States vary on the requirements regarding residency and tenant-landlord issues.

I've been seeing a girl and if we have a disagreement she uses her sister's officer position as a shield. Is that legal and what do I do?

Asked by Derrick over 12 years ago

I'm not sure what you mean by "using her sister's officer position as a shield." Regardless, it would appear you need to find another girlfriend.

Sounds like you need to talk to an attorney. You probably wouldn't like my advice.
