The last thing L.R. needs is 30 more thugs.

Do you have little to no education? Do you have zero people skills? Do you have limited prospects in life? Then come join the LRPD!

You could hire 650 more police officers and the LR/NLR area would still be a crime infested area.

my understanding of the age bracket - from friends on other forces - is a mental/emotional/physical maturity, as well as a return-on-investment. they carry a lot of gear, and need to be strong enough to not be taken advantage of when making arrests. they also need to be fit enough to pass the academy PT tests
