LA County Sherrifs...yes, but you need to be as close to white trash as possible. They do it to toughen you up and to train you on how to be an A$$. Then after sufficient "training" you become a bailiff in the court system so you can beat down defendants and get some "stick time" in. After that you get out on the street and further hone your stick and pepper spray technique on inocent civilians.

This information was relayed to me by a few friends who are LA County Sherrifs. I had one friend try out and was denied because he was too much of an independant thinker. You need to be able to follow orders and like Wacky said, your stomach needs to be top notch for all those donuts.

On a side note, at the LA Auto show, there was a recuiter there trying to get people to sign up for the program. I told them that I would sign up if I could shoot a real gun (.45 auto), not those pea shooter 9mm. He smiled and agreed that the guns are weak and that he owns many 1911's which he favors over the 9mm issue.

To the original poster...Good luck and be kind to your rotary family.

I seriously hope you were being sarcastic in this post. I've never heard such bullshit. Damn those mindless zombies.

Some of it was sarcasm. All of it was linking completely unrelated events into one though.

The few people I know in the LA County Sherrifs Department are white trash, they live in the Inland Empire and readily admit they are white trash in every sense of the word. One friend went through the academy and her first assignment right out of the academy was in LA County lock-up, Downtown. Immediately after her assignment or perhaps after a transfer request, she was put to work at CCD (6th and Commonwealth) as a Bailif. I once saw a Bailif jump an elderly man who didn't understand the sentence given to him by an underqualified commisioner and he (old man) was mumbling something. The Bailif grabbed his arm authoritatively, the old man said "Get your hands off of me" and jerked his elbo away. All hell broke loose then. Pepper spray, and batons were drawn. I later found out that the Bailif came straight from County lock-up and was transfered for being too violent.

Perhaps Ventura County runs their show different...

No, perhaps you shouldn't take one incident and apply it as fact or policy. It leads to you looking like an ***.

You tell me. I'm not awake during those hours. I don't know what he does, but did have some cool stories of hitting floating bodies in Marina Del Rey during his practice. He ran into a couple during those years too, not just one.

The sad thing is that I heard our beloved Santa Clara County Sheriff lost the "privilege" of serving in jails b/c of their incompetency. Sad shiet.

Personally I would love to be a cop just to bust some fixed up rides and just enjoy the driver's bull **** as he tries to explain how his downpipe is really a cat.

FYI: What's really interesting is the turf war between CHP and LAPD. Those guys went at it a few years back. They started pulling each other over and giving tickets until the chief laid it down on them: CHP on highways, LAPD on the streets.
