No, you only have to be 18 to be police officer. Here is a 20 year old police officer who killed 6 high school buddies taunting him: http://www.jsonline.com/news/wisconsin/29282574.html . I'm all for gun control... controlling teenage child cops with guns, that is.Valhalla1 wrote: This was also the first time in my life I felt old at 28 years old, the officer who pulled me over and was handling my weapon the whole time looked like he was a skinny 18 year old, but surely you have to be at least 21, but I was telling him "yes sir" this and "no sir" that and thinking I've never dealt with an authority figure younger than me until now
You know, those British cops who don't carry guns? If ordinary citizens cannot carry guns until 21 years of age, how come cops can carry guns before they turn 21? I think ALL people should live by the same laws. Isn't that what democracy and LIBERTY is all about? Underage cops should only be allowed to carry a stick with pepper spray and nothing more.
Be careful out there....
