LEO can be on either extreme or they can be in the middle and the middle is the best place.

So take heed.

I'm member over there, so here is the cut-n-paste:

Law Enforcement Stereotypes

*Narcotics units*

*Community Service units*

-Paint your office in pastel colors.
-Think Feng Shui.
-Subscribe to Psychology Today.
-Learn to play miniature golf.

*Traffic units*
-Write tickets to EVERYBODY.
-Spend every weekend cleaning your bike and polishing boots.
-Annoy everyone on the radio calling out your stops.
-Talk about nothing but how many tickets you wrote in one day. -Ride by a building with big windows to see your reflection.
-Golf is lame, motor radios are cool.

*Administrative Units*
-Three-hour lunches everyday, tell everybody it's a "meeting". -Upgrade department cell phone every month.
-Tell everybody you are published in a national law enforcement magazine.

-Golf Rules! Play lots of golf.

*Patrol Units*
-Backbone of the department
-Roll eyes at SWAT, yell "Hut hut hut hut hut hut hut!" when they run past.
-In a terminal state of nausea as a result of department politics
-More concerned about being stabbed in the back inside the station by administrators than being shot in the face outside the station by an actual criminal
-Makes fun of administrators if they are actually published in a national law enforcement magazine.
-Makes fun of administrators even if they aren't published in a national law enforcement magazine.

*Investigators*
-Come in at 0800.
-"Breakfast" from 0815 to 1030.
-Work from 1030 to Noon.
-Noon to 1400 Work out and Lunch.
-1400-1700 Sit in Bureau/CID and talk about how many girlfriends you have and how the wife doesn't know. Plan your next RV, fishing, motorcycle trip.

*Patrol Sergeant*
-Remembers very well "how we used to do it."
-Always willing to tell his officers the above.
-Tries to fit the word "liability" in to every sentence.
-Talks about "what he's hearing from upstairs."

*Rookie*
-Unable to grow facial hair.

-Worships the ground the SWAT guys walk on.
-Arrives for work three hours early.
-Thinks the sergeant is thrilled to see him.
-Won't drink on the golf course because it violates the open container ordinance.

*FEDS*
-Shave head, and grow goatee (unless you want to be a management weenie, and then make sure you are clean shaven, with short almost military style haircut).
-wear 5.11 pants and polo with agency logo (unless you want to be a management weenie, then make sure you always have a shirt and pants to which a jacket and tie can be quickly added for when the boss might be around).
-Arrive at work at 8AM; spend one hour answering useless emails, and 30 minutes checking your retirement investments. Then go with another agent to Starbucks "to discuss your new case."
-After participating in your first warrant service (as outside cover)make plans to join the agency SRT, SWAT, etc, to "properly utilize your superior tactical skills."
-After doing your first buy bust, immediately begin asking the boss about "long term undercover" jobs.

Always wanted to be a police officer. This is what I've always heard about being one and I hate politics and I am not kissing nobody's a$$ for nothing so I'v stayed misreable in my current job.

[TYFOON]

I wanted to be a cop to but then I realized I don't like cops to much.
I'd hate to have to work with them everyday. Lots of cops think they are above the law. Double standards suck who ever is pulling them.

As an "Anti-Cop" I tote heavy artillery everywhere I go. But I am on the side of the underdog.

My favorite saying is "There are crazy fools everywhere! And if I play my cards just right, I am going to get to shoot some of them."

For those who may not know about Suarez (the link is to his site, I believe), he is an ex leo who has been convicted of felonies. They were concerning workers comp. fraud and grand theft related to same.

Personally, as a former leo, I wouldn't have anything to do with him or his site, no matter how much of an "expert" he is in his field. That's just my opinion.
