re: Louisiana Cop Fired After Racist Facebook Post

They are very low paying jobs with high turnover. They are training warm bodies at this point.

Many of our State Troopers have criminal justice or similar degrees and make an honest rate. You rarely hear of them misbehaving.

We don't want to pay our cops worth a damn, and at least half our country doesn't show them any respect. And we wonder why we can't get good, educated people to serve.

We know a guy who recently discharged out of the Navy as an MP (or whatever they are called in the Navy). Super nice guy. He is starting with our local sheriff's office and a deputy. But he seems to be the exception. Most of the people they hire tend to be low-intelligence, low-education individuals.

Many troopers are doing higher level things. And they are held to a higher standard and get paid better.
