Do a ride along.
And Boot is his department's DARE officer!
you can tell him the truth red. between series of traffic stops (4 stops is standard, 3 hotties with big tits then 1 guy who gets ticketed for 4 things to cover the costs of pulling over the broads) cops spend there time having little competitions, like who can cuff and drag a homeless guy the farthest in 30 seconds or how far can I make that gang banger run before his pants fall down. it really is an easy job.
I have said this before and will say it again. the reason we have so many dumbass cops is because we don't pay cops enough. I see no reason that a cops salary shouldnt be between 75k to 6 figures depending on where he is at. if cops were paid that well you would have more quality people like red and that other california guy who seems to be alright i guess

willing to join the force for the right reasons, enough that it would not be difficult to sort out the ones whos ego's are bigger than their IQ.
