I doubt that you could be a 'cool cop' as (even assuming they let you out on your own without another cop) if you try to universally let folk off drug charges you'll get 1) noticed by your supervisors for never making any drug busts, depending on the neighbourhood & prevalency of drug busts this could get noticed quick; 2) noticed by the dealers & their customers & you'd get a wide reputation as a bent copper which wouldn't do you any favours in your chosen career.
The likely result would be you'd be sacked.

It is not up to you to decide what laws you want to enforce.
Don't be a cop if you don't wholly believe in what they do.

Give me a break, 99% of street cops enforce exactly the type of law that they want to. Hence the reason profiling is such a problem, and police brutality has gotten out of control.

If you have used drugs, go ahead and put that dream behind you. Unless it was just some pot, you arent going to pass the required lie detector tests. And if you have to lie about your personal past to get a job, its not worth it any ways, is it?
If the laws on the books were different, i could see honor in the job, but I couldnt enforce laws I disagree with, and therefore could not uphold my oath and duty as an office of the law.

Wow you watch too much TV. Police organizations are extremely policy-driven and each officer is expected (above all else) to act accordingly. Yes, there is police corruption; that does not justify one's becoming a cop if they are anti-prohibition.

Everyone lies to get a job, it's what cv's (resumes)are for
