How else should I read your comment?

"Its way less insulting that playing the coward like that comment suggest you are."

You are? If not me, who was it directed at pray tell?

That whole line is directed towards an imaginary cop. Saying if you are a cop id much rather see you say "BOOM GOES THE DYNAMITE" than playing a coward that you are playing by using the "im just doing my job" comment.

NOTHING, and I mean NOTHING suggest I was talking about you personally other than the fact that I used the word "you" which in context doesnt even slightly hold a suggestion that it was directed at you.

If that is the case, fine. I think you are backpedaling but what you are saying could be the case so I'll go with it.

On that note, I don't think the cop is being cowardly at all. He is simply stating a fact.

It is the case. Try reading it as the case and the confusion will be null and void. Sorry if some how I made the mistake.

I am fine with your comment and am simply going to drop it.

For the OP, I agree with others. It's doubtful they're doing hiring at this point because of the present budget difficulties. Nonetheless, perhaps this link from the city itself may be helpful (maybe you've already seen it).

I know a number of officers on a number of forces.

With the looming budget disasters on the Federal, State and Local horizons breaking into a carer in law enforcement is not likely to happen baring some wacky set of circumstances.

Most departments are looking to scale down which only adds more experienced officers to the job pool. So if you haven't already attended the acedemy/hold a OPADA certificate the chances of getting on a force when there's a huge pool of already trained/experienced officers is minimal.
