Security Guards

Thats my point,this is'nt police work.

Guess its not the shoot em up cops and robbers like you used to watch on Tv when your were a kid (obviously not that long ago ).

Maybe you should leave and go to Jersey City, NYPD or LAPD where cops are shot at, attacked by wackos, handle 20 assignments a day, and treated like crap by the public, the media, and the administration. Maybe after being a "real Cop" you will figure it out that you don't have it that bad here after all.

Those Departments would never put up with the attitude you have here and would bury a crybaby like you in a minute.

Grow up

Good grief! You wanna be a real cop? You obviously have never worked anywhere else. Go to any small or medium sized city department and you will soon be dispatched to a chicken sh!t call. Same holds true with the big ones like TPD. Yeah, there is more action like you see on COPS at big agencies, but the fact remains that we serve, and you will too as long as you are a cop. Go ahead, jump ship for a "real" police department. Then, write back in a year and tell us how many barking dog calls, BS domestics and special deliveries you did for city council staff. Also, maybe you can tell us how many times you were subjected to IA because some dirtbag complained on you.

From where I sit, you guys have nothing to complain about!
