Cops who can't keep up with you? If ever I decide to go against the law, I'll be doing it in Australia. But wait! How's their aim?

The question is: why are they so fat? Aren't they suppose to exercise some times? Aren't they suppose to RUN after the bad guy? I hope Canadian police officers are not READING your entries, naut!

Used to be a company could fire someone for being too fat,
and they did, because there was so much more medical expense for the fluffies. With the cops, you'd think their urge for dominance would make 'em want to stay in shape so they can handle the fit and agile perps.

Fat cops.
I remember Queensland, Austrailan cops were also fat, lazy f...kers. that was back in the 70's. I suppose now they're still fat lazy f...kers. Thanks for the post Naut

Naut
How far would $6,000 go in demanding workouts, eating at least one meal in a police cafe any efforts toward keeping healthy. There are many ways to stop this over surgery. Put all within a city on their feet, take away their cars. Put them on the running trails. This is total lunacy! Kick their buts outta there.

That is truly unbelievable... you would think that  one of the requirements of the job would be to stay fit... after all they have a very physical job and they should be hired with the provision that they can perform well in it.  Good one Naut :-)  xoxoxo

Now I do believe that cops/officers should not be fat or unfit - and you know what Naut, somehow I knew 'donuts' would be brought into light.   ~ Elyse
