If your local police chief asked you to, would you join a real-life "Mod Squad"?

I am curious what the rest of you would do - I am having trouble making a decision. There are obvious pros and cons; among the latter is that the pay is not so great, and of course it will probably be dangerous at times. The big pro is, hey, Mod Squad, cool! But one can't base decisions on old TV shows... or can one? It's tough. Any help appreciated.

If less than an assistant D.A., then no, I would not.

5. Absolutely!

And yes, by all means base your personal decisions on old t.v. shows; how could you go wrong?

but I'm use to dealing with people when they are not at their "best."

It seems throughout my life I was dealing with violent/psychotic people in different levels of "sobriety."

I think because of my stature(size) IRL, whenever things hit the fan people always looked up to me to deal with it, so I got accustomed to dealing with situations when they got "uncomfortable."

8. Having nepharious types in your life (some criminals are real psychopaths) brings

you down and diminishes your life. You need strong emotional armour to fall get sucked into the scum. Do you have that? Can you protect yourself from that?
