Thank you for supporting my cause, I don't want to be one of those teens who are addicted to their xbox's and PS3's. I like to get out there and be fit. Plus law enforcement is what I want to do in life.
Yes, because the majority of law enforcement officers are so "fit".  :rofl

Being a LEO is a tough career choice.  My advice to you is stick with your education.  Not just in criminal justice either.  Think outside the box.  My degree is in English and a few of my friends have degrees in business management.  I can't express this enough.....STAY IN SCHOOL!

Becoming involved with a summer program will give you an idea on what the job will be like, but there is a lot more you won't see.  

Being a cop is a thankless job  (as you can tell by some of the responses).  Working weekends and holidays, 24/7.  You will see stuff that will turn you numb to people.  

Keep an open mind and do your best.  Don't get discouraged and never tell anyone that you can't do the job.  An education will help you deal with what's to come.

Best of luck to you.

You should join the secret service instead. You already have an advantage of the other apps...they know you personally

I thought you wanted to fly an F-22? Or so your name suggests.
No I just support the F22 program. Also in order to do anything like that(flying) I would have to get corrective laser eye surgery, and i gave a firm hell freaking NO  :furious

As long as it's correctable to 20/20 you'll be fine (at least for the Air Force). But the near vision has to be perfect.

I've actually been suggested that many times, i'm considering it. Plus I hear that you can go where ever you want and they will support you where your stationed?  :headscratch: I mean its tempting but I'd like to have all the facts.

I think you misunderstood what I said, by correctable to 20/20 I mean with glasses. So if you can see 20/20 with glasses you'll be fine.

You're just as full of it now as you were then.  You're a lying punk and probably picked on dingle berry who has a hard on to be a hall monitor.

I assure you, this won't end well.

But you can't fly jets with glasses? The G's would suck them off your face? and if that happened and you can't see your pretty much screwed right? :headscratch:

I assure you, your comments will be ignored. Be mature here, i'm telling the truth and if you won't accept it, then I have no problem with that. You seriously think i'm going to fight with you? man....  :rofl :rofl :rofl
