DAY 3

Today we started out at the Metro police training center and meat with Sgt. Lisa and Constable David for all the info they had at their new facility. It was a beautiful place and things were very interesting. First of all they do not carry fire arms and well things are well different here. They are very community centered police officers. Budget cuts are huge here and things are only getting worse or better depending on what you think. They are not hiring new people but they are hiring new training officers that pretty much are like our reserve officers. It is pretty crazy but understandable. The only thing I don’t like is that they could be doing this for three years or so until they have to money to even hire anyone. Rough life, but if that is what you want go for it. The other place we went to was the Metro Police station and was entertained by Constable Richard Watson. They showed us the ropes on how things work in their department. They are so laid back compared to us. The main saying is : “We are nice People here!”…funny…
