Your posts always have the trademark "find another profession" theme. Dude, you do realize this job no longer has the prestige it once had, do you? LMPD is practically begging for people to apply and now LMPD is reduced to taking laterals. I know at least 6 people now who are trying to jump ship with less than 10 years on. So, your mindset of "you may not be worthy of working here" is not as effective as you think it is. LMPD sucks and everybody knows it!!!!

To say that every officer will be in a fight someday is way overrated. It is borderline lying but we will just call it exxaggeration for arguments sake. The truth is officers rarely get into these knock down drag outs. Most fights are the bad guy shoving you trying to get away. You might be able to tell that crap to a rookie in recruit school but for someone who has been on the streets for many many years, it just doesn't happen. I know the jokes will be coming but the truth is the truth!!!

LMPD has been taking training down to 10% for years now. They have no way been wanting a law suite. I applaud St. Mathews but they have to understand the ***** world we live in today.
