In reply to Les. Blammo. That's one of the things I'm on guard for, I don't want to be one of those guys. I've actually gotten to like people more since I became a cop, and I don't want to become one of those cynical jerks who hates everyone. I've known a few, and they're not pleasant to be around.

In reply to chrishernandezauthor. I remember in one of Wambaugh's books, (The Blue Knight?) that all Bumper noticed on a beautiful morning was dog mess in the gutter. I commented on it to my then FTO (an ex-Pasadena, Texas officer). He said that was how a lot of officers got; to where they only saw the crap after a while.

In reply to Virginia Angstadt Duckett. Maybe I'll release a few more chapters of that one, to see what the reaction is. Thanks Virginia.

Chris,
For another view of the experience versus education question, check out Jerry Pournelle’s blog (the portion called Chaos Manor). He is addressing the status of education in America.
