I think that sometimes the police just think they can do what they want to and people will just allow them to come in because they are the police. It is like people lose their ability to stand up for themselves and express their rights. I do not believe that the police can just enter your home...

It really depends on where you go to work and what you do as an officer. If you work in a big city presinct, you are going to get paid much more than you would if you were a small town cop. I do know that they get paid pretty well for the local economy and there are plenty of occassions for...

Well I just bought a puzzle for my daughter and I to work on. Might as well keep my mind occupied when there is nothing to do. I plan to take a vacation this summer as well so I have been working my rear end off trying to make some extra money. Not too impressed with the results this month so...

During the screening process, you may be asked under a polygraph examine about former drug use. You should be very honest about anything that you have done in the past because the polygraph will pick up dishonesty and you could be disqualified because of that.

In most jurisdictions the first offense is a slap on the wrist if the item stolen was of low value. The person will usually still have to go to court and pay a fine, but there is usually no jail time involved. The person would most likely have to pay a fine to the store that they stole from too...

Oh my goodness that is so sad! Why can't parents be responsible and keep their guns locked up? It just baffles me how kids can even get access to guns. My fiance and I were thinking about getting one for when we go camping, but we have already decided that we are going to keep it at his parents...

I think the police are actually being a little more careful of it these days because of all the media attention surrounding it. An officer does not want to get portrayed in the media in that sort of light. I know that the presincts around where I live take that stuff very seriously. They still...

The Crown Victoria was the most popular police vehicle around but Ford has stopped making those. I have seen a lot of Impala's around recently. Another about undercover police cars is that they have many antenna's on them and no registration stickers on the back.

What do you all do when you or bored or need to change things around in your life so it is not so routine all of the time. I have been struggling with a lot of boredom recently. The weather is cold so I can't go out and do all of the fun outdoor activities I enjoy, and I work a lot, so it makes...

I love the layout to this website. I am very interested in reading about crimes and when you log in, there are several articles begging for you to open them up and read them. I do not have to do any searches for great content to read, it is right there in my face. Very user friendly and you all...

When thinking about all of the police, FBI, and CIA related shows out there, what are your favorite ones to watch? I really like Criminal Minds because the plots are always so interesting. My fiance and I try to guess what the end result of the show is going to be, and surprisingly he is usually...

I always feel more comfortable when a police officer is nearby, it is like being protected by someone you don't even know. I sometimes will take a moment and chat with them because their jobs are so difficult. They are paid to constantly be in confrontation and so it makes them feel good to have...

I wonder if each agency pays the cost for sending their officers to attend funerals for different presincts and states. I know that police from all over the country will travel to honor a fallen fellow officer. I just don't know how that part works, they probably have a fund for this as well?

I believe that officer involved fatalities are paid for with some sort of fund. The families do not pay for officers from all over to come and take part in it. Police work is hard and it hurts everyone when an officer is killed in the line of duty. There is a big comradity amongst officers as a...

I think the best way to deal with a traffic stop is to be calm and respectful, police are human beings too and don't deserve you being rude to them because they are the law. You did something wrong if you get pulled over, so the best thing is just to own up to it and talk it over. I also agree...

There are people on this forum who do all sorts of things to make a living, so I thought I would start a discussion about it. I work security and I am also a freelance writer. What do you all do?

There are actually news broadcasts in which the anchors will not let guests finish their discussion if the anchor does not agree with the person they are interviewing. I am thinking of Nancy Grace specifically here.

I am not sure what the obsession is with Facebook. It was fun in the beginning, but now I find it to be really lame and dull. It is always the same people posting the same kind of things. Most of the people on my profile I have not even actually spoken to in years. About 2 years ago now I...

This reminds me of that Seattle teacher that was having sex with her student back in the 90s, I forget her name, but she was with the Hawiian kid. They ended up getting married years later and have made public appearances around the area. It is completely disgusting. I have not heard about her...

I have asked officers this same question, and the answer is generally when they can get the time. If you have noticed, most of the time you see the congregation in a coffee shop or cafe, it is usually on a slow day or in the off hours of the day (like Sunday morning). Sometimes they do not get...
