On the street, it is reality, not the dojo.
I don't disagree with you on any of that

I can think of two here, off the top of my head. 1,200 Officer agency, both were 100 percent justified.

I never said there weren't 'any' but that's interesting. Any idea how many sworn females worked in the agency?

How many collars did you make?

I was just thinking about that, not sure. Phoenix Metro has at least 2 dozen, not sure about the rest of the state. We're stretched pretty thin right now so I'd be surprised if we had (outside of Metro) any more than 20 / 25 or so.

"collars" sounds like something out of a Dick Tracy comic strip. I never kept track nor did anyone I worked with....

That's a tough place to work, at least in certain areas- isn't it?

That's a piece of cake compared to ENY and Brownsville NYC.

Yeah, I can't imagine doing remote duty. It has it's perks but doing 5 eight hour shifts and being on call when your off duty (mostly to handle fatal wrecks) takes its toll. I'm spoiled from working out of a city where there are so many Officers on all the time, you never get called out and backup is literally a minute away.
