I just got out of the military and besides having weekends or most of them when I was in, everything seems pretty much the same . Being a black guy becoming a officer I was actually surprised my family encouraged it even my brothers in prison encouraged me.

[@choccymilk8845]

It's basically tradition in my family for people to go to prison for some type of felony and when I started to pursue a career in LE I was surprised that everyone was quite supportive of it. They understand what they're doing is wrong and that the police are just doing their job.

Officer, I already laugh at those things and have a natural resentment of media and people

[@jongee99]

I got pulled over for the first time today. He didn't even ask for my registration, just my license, and he didn't even go back to his car. I told him the person the car is registered under has a gun permit and that there was no guns in the car but i did have a knife on my waist. He was happy that i let him know that. He asked for my license and insurance and i have it to him. He told me the reason he pulled me over was cause i took off from a stop sign like i was at a drag strip. Then he asked if i had a job and i said no and saw that i just got my license not even a year ago. Then he said i just need to slow down and that he's gonna let me off with a warning. He said he didn't want me to have to worry about a ticket and my insurance going up since I didn't have a job and cause I'm so young. It probably helped that i had no police record whatsoever. If you ever get pulled over, just hope you get an old cop. But when i saw those lights i about shit my fucking pants. He was such a nice cop.

[@pathfinder9071]

crewboy23 How about just drive appropriately instead of somehow driving so erratically at a STOP SIGN that you warrant a traffic stop lmfao. You’re not supposed to do that at a stop bc what if someone else blows the stop sign then you’re hitting them at way higher speeds when normally it would just be a small collision. Btw I’m not a cop fuck piggies. How can you justify being a cop and doling out arrests for non violent drug crimes. Civil asset forfeiture and the taxpayer cost in general is just no bueno. And they’re like teachers it’s never enough. Anyone who doesn’t wanna cough up for the boys in blue is just an antifa. Just like anyone who doesn’t wanna cough up for higher teacher salary hates kids or something.

[@sueleigh1018]

Deputy F When my family lived in Alaska and husband managed a hotel, he said the problems escalated when it was Friday (and payday), moreso when Friday the 13th, but the worst was when it was Friday the 13th and a full moon because that was when murders happened. It was true, as local headlines would attest to.

Hey officer 401, if ya read this thank you for your videos... Ever since i got out medically retired out of the military ( injuries on duty) I knew i wanted to be a cop... been plowing through college for couple years trying to achieve the goal... Had its ups and down but your channel always kept me confident... Been watching since badge bunnies vid almost a year ago... Finally went through the hiring process (after doing processing for the last 6 or 7 months) Everything has been passed through just waiting for the police academy ... Just wanted to say thank you for helping me keep motivated..

[@JulezWinnfield]

A very informative video, 401. I spent 22 years as a State Police Trooper and retired a few years ago. The example he gave about everyone calling you out as a Police Officer at parties and get togethers is unfortunately true. People will announce your occupation to everyone who is there for some annoying reason, yet not share anyone else's job or career. Also having to work Christmas and other major holidays is often eased by the premium overtime pay plus a compensatory paid day off in the future. I always hated when people I barely knew or remembered from 5 or 10 years earlier, would drop my name to a local department Officer or a co-worker Trooper like we were best friends in order to avoid a ticket. If they didn't have my same last name, then feel free to write them up with my blessings was my response. Another source of irritation he forgot to mention is to be prepared to have your meals regularly interrupted in a restaurant, by John Q. Public feeling a need to ask a ridiculous set of questions that delays your entire meal...... "Excuse me Officer/Deputy/Trooper, I hate to interrupt you but........(insert pointless and rambling question). One last thing you will hear on a daily basis is Joe Citizen reminding you that he is a taxpayer and therefore pays your salary. My response to that comment was that law enforcement is not a tax exempt occupation and that we pay the same taxes that most every other citizen pays, often at a higher taxed rate based upon our income. Uncle Sam loves taking a chunk out of your overtime pay so remember that when you have 20 or 30 hours of OT on your upcoming paycheck.....lol.

[@oregonadam6367]

So early, videos in 360p. 😁

[@antsims5833]

Officer401, I know this might be a sensitive topic to cover, but at any point could you do a video on some of the scariest moments you've faced in your LEO career? Like some instances after the events happen, you think to yourself, "holy shit this could have gone sour real quick." If not, I totally get it. I don't have law enforcement in the family but my gramps is a Vietnam vet and he's not really keen on sharing his stories as often as people would like to hear them. Nonetheless, I feel like stories like that bolster the respect for LEO's knowing just how dangerous the job can be.

A few questions. Have you ever had to deal with a corrupt cop? Why do some cops lie in court? I'm not trying to be belligerent. I have had cops get up on the witness stand take the oath and lie on me just to make the case. I lost my job, house, and career because a state trooper lied about a non preventable accident. He even made up the charges against me at the scene. Btw I'm a big fan. We need more honest Officers. Thank you for your honesty and fresh perspective.

[@Coolsie13]

Hey officer401, I think it would be very helpful and also informative to make a video about the proper way to handle a traffic stop as a civillian with either a CCW or a loaded weapon on them. I am about to get my military ID and my CCW and I would like to hear from a police officer the proper way to handle that situation. I want the officer to be just as relaxed and comfortable as I am during the stop. I have an idea on how to handle it but I think it would be helpful for everyone to know the officer's point of view and his suggested actions. Thank you and have a good one! :)

And i have always heard that I have a great personality and is really good and easy to talk with. And people always suggested to me to become a therapist. how ever I do know i am really good understanding people, reading body language and stuff like this, and while i do believe that i would fit as a therapist, i dont believe i am fit to sit between 4 walls and listen to all of these peoples problems even tho i dont mind it at all, and i have laid all my problems behind me and is living an extremely happy life at the moment. How ever i still struggle with finding out where i want lay my future. And i was stopped by police one night because i was out walking after closing time (Real suspect) we had a chat, and he told me what he did, and his partner was a real nice lad too. And it made me become interested in law enforcement because i would get to meet and help a lot of people wich is my interest felt and i would also get around town and stuff. I mean its a long road for me because i am a drop out, kinda failed hard in my early life due to struggles and issues, still clean papers tho! But i hope its not too late :)

I can empathize. I send holiday cards to my local municipal department to remind them they are appreciated. It's my job to back them up in prayer because there are a lot of demon possessed people out there. My group has actually managed to intercept some drug addicts and suicidal people on the street and God gets 'em and their lives are radically changed--one former addict is even doing prison ministry now.

I can confirm the “losing your identity” part of the video. I started the police academy and am not even sworn in yet but nonetheless (everyone already thinks you are because nobody understands it but other cops) I was at a party last night and Jesus Christ I’ve never heard that many cop jokes in my life. Every other joke I made and people laughed was like “watch out he might arrest you” or something of that nature. They were just kidding but they just don’t understand it. When I was leaving everyone starts saying “oh the cops leaving now guys the party can finally start” someone even saluted me! (Jokingly of course) but it does get kind of annoying. You can’t do nothing but laugh it off but still. Just my experience.

Good video! I heard some of the same things at our local PD's "Citizen's Academy." On the sense of humor issue, I have always said that the reason we laugh is so we don't cry. Being exposed to so much of the raw side of life as an officer, I think that whole laugh/cry thing is just amplified.
