Some words of wisdom passed onto me from my first FTO, these are just a few I thought I could pass on.


Kill people with kindness, or kill them.


Remember there is at least one gun on every call you go on.


Weapon "Hot", or Patrol Not.


It's the "Spirit" of the law one should strive to learn, anyone can enforce blindly the" Letter" of the law.





Anyone else have a few to pass on?

Wise words! Now I would like to ask two questions if I may, did you submit your request for LEO verification? And please tell me you have a twin because I am getting old and am afraid I may be seeing double by looking at your profile. Thank you.

Yes to question 1, and Yes to question 2, I sent my request about 2-3 weeks ago but hadn't heard back.

1- Jump in to soon and you maybe carried out.


2- In uniform, in vest.


3- One gun for show one for the shit that may come later.


Those are the best ones I have heard.


Being grown up has less to do with doing what you want to. And more to do with not doing everything you are able to do.

Thank you for both responses! I however, was more concerned with #2. Glad I'm okay!

Don't dip your pen in company ink. 


Most usually end up learning the hard way.

An old cop vet told me once, "Ya gotta find a happy medium between being Joe Friday and Andy Griffith when you deal with citizens."


They told (us) to open up the Embassy, or "we'll blow you away." And then they looked up and saw the Marines on the roof with these really big guns, and they said in Somali, "Igaralli ahow," which means "Excuse me, I didn't mean it, my mistake".
