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 want to become a police officer one day, but i don't know where to start. I am 19 and attending a community college right now.

Asked by Jack over 11 years ago

Contact the local police department recruiter.  He or she should be able to help.

Just want to say thanks for your answers. Yeah I know the police and military are smart despite the stereotypes (which might just exist where I live.) I really want to be a navy officer but I don't know if that'll work out because of my asthma.

Asked by Phillip almost 12 years ago

The Navy is a good way to go.  My family has had at least one man in the US Navy continuously since 1943.  You definitely want to talk to a recruiter about the asthma, but I don't think it would bar you from service.

Are there procedures that police officers use that are wrong according to their training (not "textbook" perfect) but are still used because they are more convenient and/or make more sense?

Asked by Jes over 11 years ago

Nothing in reality is ever textbook perfect. There are too many variables in every investigation and interaction.  Also, criminals rarely cooperate.

What do you do when parents don't allow young adults over 21 to go out with others? Is there any restraining order which forces parents to allow young adults to have freedom?

Asked by moonbunnie2012@aol.com over 11 years ago

Ask me a serious question.

If you are an adult - move out of your parents' home. Get a job and make your own way in life.
