I'm giving serious thought about becomng a police officer. Should I go Metro or North Las Vegas? My best friend is Metro they start out at 47k and have the best training. North Las Vegas starts out at 56k (don't ask my why) but my friend told me their academy is a joke. He also said North is easier to get into. Because of my degree and 10 years in the military he said they'd be all over me. What do you fellas know about cops in our great towns?

Get this, a North Side Detective starts out at 84k a Lt. makes 110k....That's a shitload of money for a cop in Vegas. The job pays VERY well.

My friend said the Sheriff of Metro makes 250k....HOLY SHIT! My friend said he cleared 65k last year with overtime. He's been on the force for one year and six months.

There is way more crime.

I don't want to stereotype.

There are plenty nice black females I'm sure I could have married, I just never ran into one. That didn't play into why I went white. It just happened. It's diverse in Vegas so race is not an issue. I took those values with me and am able to fit in, in most places.

You just want to frisk trannies.

If he doesn't- I will.

Any Vegas cop that ain't making 100K per year is a lazy MFer. There's so much free/dirty money in that town it's a shame.

I was always under the impression you don't get to "choose" what part of town you work in...you have to "earn" it (rank, years on force, etc...)if that was the case...every cop would work in the low-crime areas...maybe I'm wrong..I'm not a Cop..

They are two separate police departments. North Las Vegas also has its own city council and mayor.

Metro is over all of Clark County while North is just for the city of North Las Vegas.

Back in the day, Vegas Metro cops had a very heavy rep. They were the cats that kill you, instead of arresting you.

Wiggs, Metro. Just whenever you become one lets get together so at least I have a police friend. I only met one policeman here so far.

Since your African-American math skills may be a little suspect, let me help you out here, Wiggs: 56k is more than 47k. 19% more, in fact.

Hope this helps!

It's not just about the money. It's about prestige also. I don't want to work for a place that's a joke even if I get paid more money.
Metro is a well respected police force. Many people don't even know North Las Vegas Police Department even exists.

Keep working posting without adding in racism...you're almost there.

Prestige doesn't buy you jack, unless you're planning on leaving Vegas and shopping your experience around in the future.

Unless the NLV job is way shittier in terms of working conditions compared to Metro, go with the $.

Black cops are awesome... prevents the little niglet criminals from trying to pull the race card.

That assumes that blacks can't be racist.

The concept of black-on-black racism, although it may exist, pretty much gets laughed out of most courts. A black criminal crying "racism" when the cops who arrested him were black won't so much as raise an eyebrow with most people.

You will become my arch enemy sir, the training is poor, and I'm in the process of suing them see my Chainsaw update threads
and you will see. I'm directly going after these officers civily and criminally for what they have done to my arm, and anyone,
I mean you might be a nice guy, but you become one of them, I have no sympathy for you.

wiggs -- if that is truly the case then you just answered your own question -- go metro with your creds -- alot of cool metro cops ---

Yes, I was walking home from a bar drunk here in las vegas and someone called the cops. I actually left my car at the bar, I'm kind of built like paul bunion, tall and big, and there were at least 3 cops called. They wanted to put me to the ground and on pulled my arm all the way up my back, chicken wing and another stuck his baton in the chicken wing and tore everything. I was limp for 2 months, no movement. Then after they did that, I freaked from the pain and resisted, and 2 other cops got me in a choke hold, which didn't work, I went down anyway. They were jumpin around like monkeys thinkin I was out, but I wasn't. But they fucked me up really bad..

I did not even get a ticket. They took me to the Hospital, then released.

If I was going to be either I'd choose firefighting, it's something I've considered before.

Save lives instead of possibly taking them.
