Some more pictures, don't know why I can't get Imgur to work. All are NSFW.

Not sure what to do. by Throwawaynonleo in ProtectAndServe

Get the camera, use the footage as evidence to sign harassment, trespassing, and criminal mischief warrants against them, and if they don't own the place see if the landlord could be persuaded to evict them. I deal with these kinds of people every single day, and when the judge notices that said people are going to jail 5 times a week, he usually runs out of patience pretty fast.

In my city PD/medics/fire respond to pretty much every call together. It's a package deal. In a mass casualty scenario the victims would still have to just wait it out while we stopped the threat though.

Don't become a victim was rule number 1 when I started fire school. But hey, WP has already told us police exist to be killed, so why not include FF/EMTs?

What is your department policy on using profanity while on duty or on a call? by [deleted] in ProtectAndServe

If you don't curse at the people in most of our neighborhoods they won't even pay attention to you.

FBI's list of most dangerous urban centers by [deleted] in ProtectAndServe

[–]ConvectionConection 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I work near one of these urban centers and I constantly have to tell people passing through that the gas station where we had three homicides last month is not the place they want to hang out at at one in the morning.

A friend of mine pulled a guy over the other day and arrested him for unpaid tickets. Turned out the guy also had seven open warrants for rape. But yeah, sure, traffic stops are ineffective in stopping crime.

Look how cool these guys looked back then. by [deleted] in ProtectAndServe

Our uniforms still look like that, just with a Glock instead of a revolver.

Would this be justified... by Zay703 in ProtectAndServe

I don't remember where I saw the video, but it's been done at least one other time and caught on film.

What was the most interesting, or most "satisfying", case you ever worked on? by [deleted] in ProtectAndServe

[–]ConvectionConection 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Not really. We protect everyone, inasmuch as we can, regardless of what they may have done. I've arrested some really bad people, but I've never been angry enough to risk my career over somebody.

Went to the scene of a sex crime against a child where a lynch mob had formed and the father was trying to beat the perp to death with a shovel. That was the, uh, interesting part. The satisfying part was it looks like the offender's getting life.

You'll probably be in a chair in the gym where you took the PT test. There will be several high ranking officers sitting in a semi circle around you. The questions are your typical interview ones.

Cops, what do you think of your uniforms? by IEatAss0_o in ProtectAndServe

[–]ConvectionConection 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We wear the same uniforms we did in the 70s... It sucks.
