I think it's probably very helpful to have friends to study and practice with. It's also a high stress job and I could see how having friends at work might help mitigate the stress. I would hope that any and all tests to be a police officer would be strict enough to fail you if you were goofing...

Actually, almost everyone here is wrong lol. You do not have to be a citizen, but you do have to be a permanent resident (aka have your "green card'). Becoming a citizen can take many more years than getting a green card can, and many people with green cards ARE on the path to citizenship. But...

Re: What are offenses or crimes an officer "can" commit before he's removed from duty It's complex but I will say a couple things about it: 1. getting arrested is not the same as being convicted, so most cops will not be fired unless they are convicted 2. misdemeanors and felonies are obviously...

I think what happened in this case was that their was no proof that the husband had been beating the wife. She probably denied it and said the guy just punched her husband during an argument. It's not illegal in most places to use violence to protect yourself or others. Honestly the guy messed...

I think he's talking about people that became prostitutes when underage, but then they are arrested once they are over 18. He's saying you're treating it like it was their decision, when in reality it's either all they've ever known or they don't know where to go to get protection from their...

I believe so, yes. There's actually a lot of politics involved in your position/promotions in the force and the kind of assignments you get. Many people work decades to get a promotion then worry that all that hard work could be for nothing if they arrest a prominent official. I think it's...

They're trying to get you to admit to something, either a crime or at least that you are overly nervous, which could be an indicator that you have something to hide. I think it'd be fine to ask why they need to know that though. It's clearly none of their business.

It is legal. You could always claim that you were scared that they would get up and hurt you or find another weapon if you didn't hurt them bad enough. It's not legal to kill someone because you're mad they broke in, but it is legal to kill someone who broke your house to seriously harm you...

How do they know who it is? If the kids are in the dorm using the dorm internet they will all have the same IP address. If these kids are posting their real names/room #s/addresses though then they deserve to be caught. That defeats the ENTIRE purpose of anonymity.

You have the right to ignore them but they might just keep coming back and knocking. It's best to answer the door and tell them you don't want to speak to them or let them in, so they'll at least leave you alone or do what they were going to do anyways (if they already have the warrant). It's...

Yes, you can get charged with impeding an investigation. If a cop asks you questions you don't want to answer, you don't have to answer. But giving false information is a bad idea and can get you charged with a misdemeanor (on top of whatever the cop might have been wanting to charge you with...

I think many cops suffer from depression and PTSD and are scared to tell anyone should they be suspended from their job. I could totally see someone having dealt with such mental issues regretting ever putting themselves in that position in the first place. I think cops should have more access...

I knew a girl in college that did this. She was a serial liar. I agree the woman committed a crime, but I think these types of things are cries for help (like fake suicide attempts). I think that the woman would be better off going to therapy than to prison.

HOLY **** that's like some bath salts stuff right there. Can a normal non-drugged human bite completely through that much uhhh muscle I guess it is? Seems like that would have taken FOREVER. That poor guy :(

You could try auto-banning posts with certain words or phrases. I don't think your forum should be hurt too much by NO ONE (human or bot) being able to post about fake ids. You could also try requiring a user to fill out a captcha if they post more than a certain frequency (2 posts in 10mins...
