Kawasaki Nun posted:that security guard ain't right, tell you what. Now I'll have you know that the security guard went through a strenuous 20 hour course by an OPOTC certified instructor and fired a rigorous 38 round course of fire. He knew what he was doing. He didn't Edit: I forgot to add there was a 1 page written test

A Bad Poster posted:People who choose to be cops should be viewed with suspicion. People who choose to be cops for no pay should be put into a gulag. There are states whose system forces a lot of police academy grads to take unpaid gigs where they are basically taken advantage of by local municipalities. I'm looking at you Ohio... Edit: Basically if you go to a police academy, pass the Opota test and get a commission as a police officer in the state of Ohio, you have 12 months to find a department that will hire you. So a lot of smaller departments will hire you to an unpaid auxiliary position, where you work 20 hours a month, for free. So that you have time get hired on to a paying department.

A Bad Poster posted:That sounds like you really, really have to want to be a cop in Ohio to put up with that. I say gently caress 'em if they're willing to unnecessarily be indentured servants. They chose to be cops, no sympathy. I knew guys that would drive 60-90 minutes away from home to work those jobs for free, until they got hired on to a bigger department. If you see a cop in a city with less than 30,000 people, they probably aren't getting paid and live nowhere near the area they are policing once or twice a month.

Smiling Jack posted:I don't want to try and explain DA/SA to some of my co-workers. With the exception of transit, "don't take your fuckin gun out" seems to be the current shift in culture as the new attitudes of the trend setting units (narco, anti-crime) percolates into patrol culture. Yeah, but your issued Glocks have a trigger set at a higher pull weight.......for......reasons? Disclaimer: I bought an ex NYPD P226 DAO years back and I'm good with it but not as good as other pistols I own.

Smiling Jack posted:Glock leg. The original NYPD revolver swivel holsters required you to stick your index finger in the holster to wedge the gun past the retention rod (yes this is a dumb as it sounds) and when they switched to the Glock muscle memory and stupidity led to a lot of NDs. So instead of training officers to safely handle firearms they handicap them making it more difficult to shoot accurately when they need to?

This thread was originally created specifically to keep posts about the hosed up state of policing in the United States from clogging up the current events thread. Probably confusing it with the old cop lounge thread before all of the cops were driven out of GIP
