Troopers of the MSP Salisbury Barrack have set the bar in trying to be truthful and transparent in an effort to advance a culture of honesty, clarity and trust. We will be helpful and supportive and have a positive attitude and passion for what we do. We will be proactive, take initiative, and try to anticipate citizens’ needs. We will always aim for 100% accuracy, and be consistent in how we interpret and implement state policies and procedures.

Who are they really trying to fool?
There job is to create as much revenue as possible for the state coffers in the name of safety.
The police have become militarized, and the days of officer friendly like Andy Griffin are over.

God help you if you should ever be stopped by one. Quickly get your license and registration and put your hands on the steering wheel. Don't make any threatening moves, and maybe you will come out of this alive!

I was a former police officer back in 1981 and the police force of today is nothing like the police force we had in the past.

Since the patriot act, we the people have become the enemy and the police have become militarized and have instead of someone to respect, they have become someone to fear.

Dave T: Maybe they should send to themselves. Haven't had any good experiences with them. They are not representative of good law enforcement any way shape or form from what I've seen. They represent more of what people despise with law enforcement than what is good about it.
