Yes. It's illegal even if you're "holding it for a friend." Okay?Joeyjoe21_8:I wanted to ask some questions....Pm me please -
I spent 11 years as a cop in Missouri but Texas is another country.
-
lol..dont worry im not in trouble..just wanted to ask more about their police departments and what not....dont know if i want to join CHP or go to texas...
-
Texas all the way, baby. As a cop, I know how little we get paid and how little we are valued by the public in general. If I had it to do all over again, I'd move to Texas. Better cost of living and a higher appreciation for the police. Plus, NO INCOME TAX in Texas!!!Joeyjoe21_8:lol..dont worry im not in trouble..just wanted to ask more about their police departments and what not....dont know if i want to join CHP or go to texas... -
yeah trust me texas as my name written all over it...havent been yet but will this summer...plus i just bought a house here which my roommate will take over and rent for a few years or so, but i bought a 1050sq ft house with decent yard on .10 of a acre in a decent neighborhood but not excellent for 107k....in texas i just found a 3800sq ft two story house, on .85 acres, no hao fees,5 bed, 4 bath, wiht a library that looked like the guy turned it into a smoking room, in a really really nice area near dallas, for 250k....Thats more then worth the money to me..lol...and no income tax couldnt be better!

Shoot me a PM bro. I'll answer any questions I can and help out however I can. I've been working in the Texas Law enforcement family for a few years now.

lol, I didn't want to make anyone upset but I just had a bad time there. Though the food I had was great. Sort of like florida, didn't like that either though Disney world is there so I might to back...mrpillow:

Dude Florida is so much more than WDW. We liked it better before it came. That's right, we like it rural and slow and Orlando is so "somewhere else" if I couldn't live in North Florida, Texas would be my 2nd choice.
-
Whereabouts did you live Squirrel?
-
WOW I know alot of interesting stories come out of Texas but I don't know about F'd up! I did live in Orlando for five years and I thought Disney and Universal Studios sucked I loved the fact that Cocoa Beach and Daytona beach were only a hour away> I used to love getting to either beach at 6am and lay down on blanket to listen to all nature had to offer. Then later the restaurants/bars on beach would open alowing me to listen to all the humans had to offer! Live Love and Enjoy!phobicsquirrel:

When I think of Texas Law Enforcement, I think of policing in the good ole days wild west style! Definetly not that way here in Atlanta but its still not a bad gig
-
Squirral you must be a first to not like texas...ive talked to numerous upon numerous people and not one person had anything bad to say about it...but hey...then again i hated Walt Disney World and florida all together wasnt horrible...i just have no desire to ever go there...that and hawaii....overrated places to me
-
My law enforcement expereince is all in NY. I can tell you no matter where you work as a cop, it is a brotherhood unlike any other. I've been all over the country and in Canada and Ireland and you are immediately accepted once they know you're a brother/sister cop.
Good luck whatever area you choose. -
Thanks Man! Yeah i cant wait to get into the force
-
Well that's not exactly how it is here in Texas either. lol But I have to say Texas is a great state to live and and a great place to work. The absence of a state income tax is one of the great parts that's for sure! Not only do you get to keep more of your own money, but it's a lot quicker to file your taxes at the end of the year! I assure you, Texas is not an F'd up place to live. Plus the women in Texas are some of the hottest in the world. A survey done by the PGA tour asked which city the visit has the best looking women, and a large majority of the the players said Dallas. Yet another perk! hahaJZ:When I think of Texas Law Enforcement, I think of policing in the good ole days wild west style! Definetly not that way here in Atlanta but its still not a bad gig -
And with HOT women, you cant go wrong!! I'm enroute!
-
ditto
-
You've got a brother here in Tennessee as well, incase you need anything in the Nashville area
Once you step beyond that blue line, things change forever. It's a sacrifice, most officers will let you know that up front. Good luck in TX! I wish we prosecuted people here like they do down there -
thanks sherlock...hey i hear illinoise called national guard to help with their pd cuz crime is getting bad? true?
