Im curious if a cop has to arrest someone now. Only thing i'd feel bad about is busting someone for pot or any drug really.

I could see myself as a detective, maybe. But more likely a hard-drinking, chain-smoking, bend-the-rules private eye than a cop.

My loathing for police and other LEO's is only partially due to the war on drugs, there are many other reasons I do not care for those egotistical assholes. I've come across a truly good cop only a few times in my life. Theyre out there but not easy to come by.

A cop is someone who wants to police people. What kind of personality is that? Easy going, fun loving? Ha.

Ever wonder where all the jock assholes from high school went? That's right. Cops.
Or military, if they actually had any balls. Bullies with balls go to war. Bullies who are chickens at heart become cops.

Yep. Many cops were bullies in school. That is why these ones become cops, so they can bully from behind a badge.

Being a police officer is a very reputable job, lots of perks, lots of respect.
As for the drugs, you have to remember that you can make a judgment call before arresting somebody.

There are good cops out there, but by and large people become cops because they like the power trip.
Interestingly, most likable police I know reside in the Sheriffs office. Sheriffs seem pretty cool in generally actually; I have cracked a beer open with more than one.
The 'cops' I have known though... every last one was a hothead on an ego trip. Honestly, most of them could probably benefit from a good dose of psylocin... give them a REAL 'ego trip'

I guess part of the reason I would want to is to kinda change it up. Not be one of the asshole cops. Kids joint so what. Tell him to go home if he needs a ride provide one, make sure he gets home safe.
I have 5 family members are cops. Only one, my second cousin is an asshole. One of the chill family cops actually knocked his ass out one night because of that.

The problem is this: whether they admit it or not, cops have pressures put on them from their superiors to make arrests. The chiefs and commissioners are under pressure to bring in revenue for the city, and tickets/arrests = revenue.
If you want raises and promotions, you better make those arrests. It's the numbers that count, just like any other job. You would find yourself dragging in potheads left and right before you knew it.
Instead of "To serve and protect", it should read "To make a profit" on the side of the car. It is a business like any other.

Nah, but you would start with traffic tickets, and you would be expected to dole out those tickets, and you would feel like a douche for doing it. IMO
