    What is with the moms killing their babies?

    Well as we all know, teen pregnancies rates are increasing in today's society. An early pregnancy can disrupt any normal development that a teenager can have, physically and especially mentally. Some teenagers just don't have the mental capacity that they think they would to take responsibility...

    What helps you sleep at night?

    You're not supposed to look at any lights at least for 90 minutes before you sleep. That is the most optimal way to approach your nightly rest. Though, with all the technology and the unseeingly spare time that people are getting, people are finding it harder and harder to not face an electronic...

    What do you consider excessive force?

    Yeah it does seem a little excessive, but your friend should be glad that the cops weren't hitting him or doing anything that would potentially harm his life or well-being (assuming your friend was not injured and is still alive after that ordeal, of course). Seeing as the recent events of...

    Driving offences

    Well, the next time you get a ticket and they don't hear from you, and they check your records, you're going to have a lot of problems to deal with. I suggest dealing with them right now, or at least not making a mistake by speeding or whatnot. Especially if you get involved in a car accident...

    Madam Officer, may I ask you a question?

    I think your question is not being asked in the appropriate section. This section is about forum suggestions, basically about what changes you would like to be added or removed from the forum.

    Doughnuts?

    Well I've actually met a couple of cops who says they LOVE donuts and love sucking on their fingers after they're done eating. Met a couple, it's a correlation and a possible true stereotype.

    Protests in NY over chokehold death

    While the Ferguson issue is debatable as there is no video, there is actually a video for this New York Choke-hold death. The man clearly says "I cannot breathe!" in the video, other's argument to this is that, "If you can talk, you can breathe." but that is not how it works, there is still air...

    Is it harder to take down a woman, child, etc?

    I agree with everything that everyone here has posted but to look at it from a different perspective, maybe the cops are "bored" and just want to experience some fun by using the excuse of "doing their work" to beat down and to over-kill their task or assignment.

    Military Background

    It definitely would, you would probably get in 100% unless it was the last spot left and there was someone else with a military background plus something more. Having military background means you're able to follow protocol, you have "battle" experience, and also discipline and a good basis of...

    Has anyone in your family ever been police officer?

    Be mindful that having a police officer can be a double-edged sword. If that officer is infamous for being particularly Procrustean and particularly mean, you might get bashed for it. For example, you're a kid, your father gives some other kid's father a very pricey speeding ticket, that kid is...

    How much does the academy cost, and can you use financial aid?

    Remember, there are always other options. If things don't quite work out for you, you can always try and do something else. No ones going to blame you.

    How much downtime do officers have on their shift?

    I'm pretty sure I've been influenced by social media and TV media coverage and also cartoons to think that police actually have a lot of free time and they're sitting in cars on the side of streets, eating donuts. Or some are even lying in the darkness of corners and trying to catch people...
