police

Hi, my name is Scott. I decided to check out this site since there seemed to be a lot of interesting things to see... and I always have questions to ask.:) By the way, what would be the official stance of a police officer if a zombie popped up and tried to bite me? I need something on record... lol

Hi everyone! I am from Los Angeles and I love the idea of being able to ask a police officer some information. This is a great idea. Excited to meet everyone! ;)

I just caught this on TV the other night and thought it was pretty good. The premise is that a police officer isn't thrilled by his sister's boyfriend, and needs to be proven that he's not useless. So, naturally, he takes him on a ride along. Along the way, they encounter a bad situation and...

If you have a tip to give to the police, know someone is committing crimes, or doing something equally heinous, and you bring it to the local police, how anonymous is it really? Will you be forced to testify if it goes to court? Can that be anonymous? What if it involves family and you really...

I grew up in a neighborhood were thugs and bullies are common. When I was young I witnessed a crime happening with my own two eyes. A gang riot between two gang factions started and one person was being stabbed by another. I was frozen still were I was standing and I remember I was shaking with...

Hows everyone doing? Im here to join in on police talk. I work with a few retired cops. I hope everyone is friendly and nice to me.. Good to meet yall.

Police in Portland, Oregon deliver pizza after the driver involved in crash had injured his neck and back. The driver was transported to a local hospital. The officers told him they would make the delivery for him. "They turn around to leave and I said, 'Hang on, I've got to a get a picture of...

It's pretty exciting for me to be in a police community. I grew up with a friend from a very complicated neighborhood who managed to come out and become a police officer, I think he's a great example. Looking forward to see the forum.

I am kind of curious as to how many hours a student needs to go through training to become a police officer of duty. I have often heard that a barber goes through more hours of training than a police officer, but I am sure that is just a myth. However, I really am curious as to how many hours...

Was there ever a time during you tenure, that you had came upon a situation, or a build up of instances, where you felt that you could not take another day with your duties as a police officer? Was quitting the department an option, or maybe heavily thought about? I thought about it myself...

Some time back, two girls were arrested for attempting to kill their friend as a sacrifice for slenderman. Proof that kids are getting really bad and for that reason must be made to pay for their crimes. Question is, supposing a kid who is slightly younger, who may not know that what they were...

A Florida man who called police to tell them he was considering harming himself and others, a deputy found [out], had already killed his grandchildren and daughter. After talking to the cop for a little while, he also shot himself. The murderer it's said has a criminal history. Years back, he'd...

Does Criticism Dampen Your Spirits? Truth be told, when there's something a bad cop does something stupid, the police get bad press. They focus on the negative and even intimate that all if not most police officers tacitly support whatever was done. Such kind of criticism could demoralize...

Just yesterday I was wondering how cops react to threats of this sort. It's like everyone on the wrong side of the law now sees ISIS as their heroes. Two men arrested a month back said they'd join after they left prison, kidnap and behead an American. This other man though, actually threatened...

During your time there, what do you feel could be improved on that would really make a big difference to a lot of people?

Criminals, when they are arrested can promise the officer who makes the arrest that once they get out [of prison/jail] they'll have to get their vengeance [for being arrested]. While in most cases this is nothing more than just 'tough talk' do police take seriously such threats of retaliation...

Many of the police that I have ever come across retire poor. The main reason for this is still a mystery to me.

I was once arrested illegally by the police and before getting me to the police station,They had already asked me for bribes of which I did not give out.

It's the legal for Police to seize you car and anything you have in it if they suspect that you are a drug dealer or suspect any cash you may have with you was gained by means which were not honest. And you'd wonder why people don't like the police that much! What would make the cops think you...

How do you keep in shape for police work?
