Dude you got some pretty big internet balls calling me Farva. I never even said I had a shitty job. So how can I answer your question? I said shitty pay and hours, the job is awesome. If I had to pin the pay on any one entity I would have to pin it on the public. Law enforement is seen as a necessary evil. No one wants to take a big hit on tax dollars for a service they rarley if ever need. So departments are given the bare minimum to operate(most of the time). You get to keep SOME money from interdiction, parking violations..ect....In Indiana most of it will go for training and wont even be used toward salarie. Then you have people flaming LEOs because of parking tickets, or getting hooked for a petty drug crimes like marijuana(dont we have better things to do). Its a lose lose situtation. Anything you do to create more revenue will just piss more people off. I'll also mention all the money from fines, probation fees ect....goes to the state. We dont get any of that loot either. So I hope that answers your question....if your going to call me any more names please have a set to sit on and do it in Indiana.
