[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]he has better odds being accepted to Harvard than landing a job with LAPD ... Target security guard? he won’t make it, so you shouldn’t worry. [/quote]

How's LAPD that hard?[/quote]

It's not. PP was just being a dick.

Being a LEO is a lot less dangerous than many "safe" jobs. What he and you should worry more about is getting caught up in a scandal, either real or fabricated, that might cost him his job and pension, or land him in jail. It's a real thing. It happens way more than cops getting killed by criminals. They'll either do something stupid and get caught, or someone will falsely accuse them of something and they get tossed as a sacrificial goat.

Lots of cops in my family. I tried to join when I was younger, but failed the psych evaluation. I'm an independent thinker and a questioner of authority constructs. Police need order-followers who accept their places in a chain of command without question. [/quote]

actually, roughly 5% of those who apply to LAPD actually become recruits; 5% acceptance is lower than Harvard ... so, the PP was correct and you’re incorrect.  [/quote]

The background investigation for LEO can be lengthy.  Especially for federal LEOs, 1-2 years is not unusual. [/quote]
