BEAT OFFICERS ARE THE BACKBONE!! AND NO MATTER WHAT WE DO NOW, WHETHER ITS FLEX, DISTRICT DET, OR HOMICIDE, WE ALL STARTED ON THE BEAT! I HAVE BEEN DOWN IN THE HOOD SINCE I STARTED, AND I WAS ONE OF THE GUYS WHO USE TO THINK THAT WE WERE THE ONLY ONES THAT WERE THE REAL POLICE, THATS BULL!!! THE WAY I SEE IT NOW, THOSE GUYS NOT IN THE HOOD, GOT IT FIGURED OUT, THEY MAKE THE SAME AMOUNT OF MONEY AND ACTUALLY POLICE WHERE PEOPLE PAY TAXES AND APPRECIATE THEM!! ONE FINAL THING, THERE IS GOOD BEAT GUYS
