that's what happens when you lower standards and let just anyone be a cop

Revenue enhancement officers!
Patrol the highways looking for revenue, but don't count on them to patrol your neighborhood or be there when you call 911 to help! Sheriffs office and local police seem to handle this.

Nice job MSP. Do not speed no problem. As for you 7:42 why don't you try wearing that costume for a week. It is not all that fun. It used to be the best job on earth. People like you are the reason it sucks now. In the 80's we could split your wig for being so stupid. Ahhhh the good ole days.

As you can see, there are no female or black Troopers in the photo. Typical MSP. While the white males are doing all the hard work and heavy lifting, the minorities are being promoted or given the cushy 8-4 jobs with no real responsibility or work. The Black Troopers Coalition wouldn't have it any other way. Yes, that's correct, there is a Black Troopers Coalition. Try forming a White Triopers Coalition and see how fast people cry "racism".

Hey 3:13...I know the jabs between MSP and locals is all in good fun. I get it. But I HAVE to ask....was it the push-ups or pull ups that you failed on your entrance test for MSP? Let's be honest about the creation of Sheriff's Deputies and City Police Officers. Major League Baseball has the minors, NBA has the developmental league and the NHL has minor league hockey. Society HAD to create a minor league for those that just couldn't make it as a Trooper so as to not ruin your dream of being a police officer. Deputies and local police are like those little yapping lap dogs that bark at the pit bull that walks by. They know they can't compete with the truly superior pit bull but they act all big and bad while their mommy protects them. You're lucky society created the minor leagues for police work. Otherwise you would be serving me my lunch at Chik Fil A.

10:44 - I think you just insulted every police officer that is not with the State. First of all police officers including state has to do the same things to qualify to be in law enforcement. People out there that think any different is completely misinformed. They have to have the educational classes, firearm instruction, yearly updates and classes, excercises, etc. to qualify to be in that uniform whichever they chose to be in. Some of these people chose not to go in the State Police so they could stay in their communities and not be shipped all over the state. I stand for and respect every law enforcement officer that respects their badges, State, City and Sheriff.
