  1. Nah, I'm content with my current technique.
  2. So what sectors are there to train in in the police force?

  3. Variable. What country you live in? In the U.S. there is usually city, county, state, and national level agencys, which vary alot.
  4. Australia but Im french origin if that makes any sense...

  5. I've heard weirder.

    So how is your country's police force organized? National? Regional? Local?
  6. National if your meaning Australia wide
  7. Well thats fairly ovious. I meant jursidictional boundry wise (my spelling is bad). Just looked it up, and I can say it seems to be arranged along the same lines as it is here.

  9. Depends on the department. Small departments might have, one detective, one or two officers assigned to a regional dive team, or SWAT type unit, and essentially every one else will be patrol although there will be higher ranking officers as shift supervisors. In larger departments, there are usually many specialized units, that usually any member of the department can get in after a certain amount of time (usually 2-5 years) in patrol. For instance, the Michigan State Police has a bomb squad, a dive unit, canine unit, EST (a SWAT type unit), aviation section, capital security, and most likely several units that I cant think of at this time. Some are part time units, meaning the members assigned to them also do regular patrol duties, while others are full time, meaning that's all they do.
  10. Cool stuff,
    although its annoying when there are part time units.
    I find that annoying in any business especially with service or communication,
    but I guess it is the way it has to be,
    we cant all work 24/7 to be flawless
  11. Well with police work its cost. Something like a SWAT team is expensive to train and equip, and just having them sit around waiting for a high risk warrant, or a barricaded gunman, is not cost effective, so in most departments they tend to do regular patrol, or detective duty's till they are needed.
  12. Makes sense, does'nt it?
    Besides Government has to be able to put some money in their own pockets.
