Whats the craziest thing youve done?

One of the craziest things I've done was to fight someone on PCP (angel dust). Only two on one, but we won.

That's great stuff . I love that kind of humour.

I remember randomly quoting a line from One Piece "If I'm reincarnated, I want to be a clam". That got a few larfs. Mainly from myself though.

Ok, went to Japan, married a Japanese national and used Japanese to translate vicitm and suspect statements (as they lay in the hospital). Spent hours a day studying for years and turned down a position at a good graduate school in Japanese.

Yes, I apologize. I am guilty of not fully reading the post. I accept full responsibility and forgive you pointing out the faults of others.

Josh, no reason you can't still do it. Stay clean and go for it. If you can earn more money elsewhere, great, but if not it's a great way to earn your income while serving your community and protecting your nations document of soverignty. There are pockets of the world where police are professional, polite and educated.
