even stevie wonder could’ve seen this coming...
The Los Angeles Police Department also has fewer officers than what it is budgeted for....
Where else can a HS grad be making >$100,000 per year after 4 years?
White cops, don’t go to the democrat-controlled cities. First, they are going to pass over you for unqualified members of America’s #1 “oppressed” group. Second, if you are hired, you will be thrown to the wolves. You will get no support. Third, a large part of your job will be in the ‘hoods where they hate you for being White.
There are a lot of nice Republican towns where you would be given full support. Problem is, they don’t need many cops since the folks don’t commit crime! Funny thing! I wonder what might be the reason for that!
Salaries will need to rise dramatically to attract capable people to become law enforcement officers. I for one think it is a good idea. I think many taxpayers would agree.
We could use more policemen I Phoenix AZ.
Retired because of covid according to article nd no other reason of course.
I could not care less what probems Philly is facing because of their stupid Democrat policies including anti-police. Damn city can burn to the ground as far as I am concerned
That $100,000.00 stops when you go to prison.
No cop who can get a job elsewhere is going to want to work anywhere that has a large black population, that’s for sure.
Yes he is.
Around the Miami Vice era the city of Miami had serious difficulties recruiting police recruits.
Sooo, they lowered their standards.
They hired folks you would not let walk your dog.
And they had a series of cop killings and drug deals where cops made LOTS of money.
Just saying.
Whites living in the suburbs have no business policing inner city blacks. Lower the recruiting standards and give the crackheads a gun and a badge.
We should not be arm-wrestling over the thugs of society and honorable men.
It’s even funny, at least to me.
Welcome 2 Kooky-Vile!

I only mention the following as a point of reference in light of policing vis-a-vis the black population. In days of my youth growing up in a Southern city, the police force employed black policemen as well as white policemen. The black side of town was policed only by the black policemen and they definitely took care of enforcing the law and dealing with the the crime and violence of the black “trash”, with black community support I might add. Since today’s race issues seem to involve interactions between white police and black citizens, maybe going back to the old way of doing things should be considered?
I think many potential recruits figure that rather than deal with scum in the big blue cities they might as well train to become and plumber .... still have to deal with scum, but better pay and more respect.
It’s gonna be a very hard time getting and keeping cops.
Just an aside;
“There is also a new policy that requires all applicants to be living in Philadelphia”
I’ve seen many places try that for city /county jobs and fail. Can’t get enough applicants.
RE: It’s gonna be a very hard time getting and keeping cops.
Pretty soon, only those who can afford private security will feel secure.
Tough luck for the rest of the peasants. Be sure to practice using your guns.
