Being in law enforcement is tough work and if you have never done it yourself then don't show your ignorance by watching COPS and pretending to know what it is like. Most LEO's are good, honest, people who deal with people who are neither. Sitting on your *** and criticizing those that willingly put themselves in harms way makes you look petty.

The National Center for Health Statistics estimates that, for 2015-2016 in the U.S. , 39.8% of adults aged 20 and over were obese. Police departments, as well as the armed services, have to deal with the population available to them.

Start with 100% of the adult population. Remove those not interested, tough enough, or brave enough to do police work. Remove those with criminal records and those who can't pass a drug test Then consider that 40% of American adults over are overweight. What is left is the candidate pool you have available to you. It is understandable that some overweight people are going to work in LEO and in the military.

Police departments and the military are filled with the same people who make up this country. Do you really think that either is going to be free of liars, cheats and outright bad people? It never was and never will be. To say a large percentage of LEO's is bad or that the bad run the departments hasn't been my experience.

The military and L.E. have had to lower their standards because of the population. If you are physically fit and this bothers you then feel free to join one or the other. Chances are you will still be outrun by someone about to lose their freedom.

Do me a favor and don't call me ignorant, I already forgot more than you will probably ever know.. I have my opinion and you have yours.. I respect yours, respect mine... I have family in the military and in LE, I stand by my post what's that tell ya...

Some very,very good points but no reason whatsoever justifies LEOs that lie. Not talking about lying in their personal life, I am talking about lying in court about YOU or YOURS and proven to have done so. Have you ever had that happen to YOU?

If you think I get my opinion from the TV rather than personal interaction you are sadly mistaken!

Okay, fair enough. You are obviously entitled to your opinion but it is a bit hypocritical to ask for respect when you show none to the so called "fat asses" in law enforcement. Perhaps if you gave more respect you would get more. My opinion, of course.

Unless you have actually been in L.E. then you haven't forgotten more than I know about this subject.

No one gets a free pass because they are LEO's or in the military from me, sorry that 's the way it goes..

Not justifying lying by anyone. Was simply pointing out that the law, the courts, the military, hospitals, etc. are made up of the same people that populate this world. Unfortunately some are dirt bags. No profession is immune to this unfortunately.

Yeah, sorry, changing the topic isn't the way it goes either. Who asked you to give them a "free pass"? Not me.

You have stereotyped an entire profession, used your family members to support your theory that LEO are fat asses and lowlifes, then asked me not to call you ignorant while at the same time stating you have forgotten more then I will ever know (which is simply another way of calling someone ignorant). If you think you know more than I do, or have forgotten more, about the subject and you have never actually been in LE that is ignorant.

Since we are both entitled to our opinions and yours seems to be that most cops are overweight and corrupt I won't be posting any additional responses about the subject unless you would like to post the data that backs your theory.

In reading Atchuuu’s post there I didn’t see anywhere that he was justifying lies by LEO’s, especially not on the stand, in court, under oath. Nobody has tried to justify that in this thread that I’ve seen. If you can point out where it has been, please do so.

Show me were I said the entire profession are "corrupt, lowlifes and fat asses".. Don't stretch the truth, I know you're good at it..

I said "half" the ones I see are fat, or as you would say "overweight", or Shall I say "obese", I'm not all that good at being politically correct sorry..... We don't want to hurt anyone's feelings now do we.. Stop making excuses for other people..
