Recent events:

Minneapolis wanted to pay “influencers?”

It’s call a PR office. This city is being run by morons (like many others)

"I would predict that this department on day one is going to look an awful lot like a police department and the Office of Violence Prevention, both as they currently exist, but reporting to the new commissioner," Fletcher said, adding that they could bring in additional divisions in the future.

They are realizing that replacing the police is harder than those BLM protesters made it sound.

BLM’s goals vs the goals of their useful idols Reform and “defund/dismantle” are very different

Next up, our weekly wisdom, an update on new merch, and a look into the book from which our motto came and why it matters for all of us. If you want to hear the rest of our PAP Nation Roll call, head on over to Patreon.com/policeacademypodcast.

Weekly wisdom:

The Power of Popular Opinions

don’t be fooled by group-think

Look for “hierarchical deference”

Never assume someone who disagrees about a complex issue is unintelligent. There’s usually someone smarter than you who agrees with them, even if they’re wrong.

4 Police Hiring DQs: Learn How to Tell Your Story

Everyone has a unique case, but the response is always the same. If I’ve answered an email by sending you to this episode, you should listen to it because I created it just for you. Answering specific scenarios is NOT necessary. This is the answer!

In regard to:

Drugs

Credit

Arrests

The Hard Line: Are you disqualified?

Look up the department’s hiring requirements and policy

If that doesn’t answer the question, call them and ask

If no concrete answer, then it’s not a formal DQ

The soft line: Can you get hired?

OWN YOUR PAST!!!!! We all make mistakes. This builds maturity and wisdom! Why are you a better person now because of your past mistakes? What did they tech you? How can you help others who are still stuck in that place?

Time is your friend: you need a solid track record of better decisions

Evidence of a changed life

Tattoos:

“Hello,

I am 32 years old and want to attend our local college police academy. The biggest worry I have becoming a police officer is not being able to find a job due to my tattoos. I have many in which none are offensive however, some are located on my hands and neck. I would love to hear your opinion on this or others that have the same issues. I dont believe this says anything about who I am and know that they are becoming more accepted. I thought this would be a great episode idea considering the younger generations that want to go into policing are also covered in tattoos. Thanks!

The Hard Line: Are you disqualified?

Look up the department’s hiring requirements and policy

If that doesn’t answer the question, call them and ask

If no concrete answer, then it’s not a formal DQ

Tats, facial hair, unique hair styles are all becoming more common and accepted.

Tats do say something about you. (Moana)

Be prepared to tell your story

How did those times in your life shape who you are today for the better?

Hair: This is something you can control now. You should look the part in this category, even if it’s not your style exactly. Look clean and professional, period.

Ultimately, your story is yours alone. Be honest, own your past, and sell yourself as a candidate using those tattoos you’ve collected along the way.

FROM FERGUSON TO THE FEDS WITH TONY MALIK Jan 18, 2021

Show notes

Tony Malik is a former St. Louis County Police Officer and is currently working as a federal agent. He is also the founder of several companies to include; The Badge Life, a fitness apparel company providing an alternative to the big, anti-police companies like NIKE and Under Armour; and Officer Survey, a new tech startup aiming to help build profound relationships between police agencies and their communities by allowing them to provide feedback after every dispatched call. Officer Survey also acts as “an early intervention system to identify issues at the earliest possible stage so that intervention and support can be offered before it’s too late.” We talk about the Ferguson riots, police training, the difference between local and federal law enforcement, creating trust and transparency in our police, and much more.

Seeds of Our Destruction - The Undeniable Truths About the DC Capital Building Riot Jan 10, 2021

Show notes

JANUARY 6th, 2021 Washington DC will go down in infamy. Understanding what really happened in DC that day is no easy task. Many will claim to know what it was about. We call these people liars. Despite the fact that we may never know fully what happened and why, there are some truths that cannot be denied. Today we talk about those truths and what they mean for us moving forward.

Initial Observations and Thoughts:

This is wrong: President’s and others’ language Action by people, including SOME Trump supporters 4 People dead US Capitol Police officer Brian Sicknick. Officer Sicknick, 42, died Thursday after he reportedly was bludgeoned with a fire extinguisher Wednesday when President Trump’s supporters (ny post) broke into the building in a failed attempt to block certification of President-elect Joe Biden’s victory. Ashli Babbitt, 35 14-year veteran of the US air force and of four foreign military tours, including to Iraq and Afghanistan. video from washington post: https://www.police1.com/patrol-video/articles/video-shows-lead-up-to-fatal-shooting-inside-us-capitol-cA9SwOpvdUDcFjXK/ Another adult female and two adult males died of medical emergencies 50 officers injured White dude talking about this protest might be ignored First, this is why so many people are pissed, they’ve been labeled and ignored because of their skin color Second, people, especially those in the dec party, have become COLOR BLIND

Human nature cannot be discounted here Motivating a mob of people is not that hard How many instigators does it take? We have trolls online, you think they’re not here at this rally? Both sides have had agitators impacting their political events for the worse Think about the motivations of our big enemies: China, Russia, Iran, etc. Domestic groups: Antifa, BLM, KKK, many others Theres no reason for the political right to be behind this. Dems are sitting back in joy MEDIA are drooling: “TRUMP SUPPORTERS” not rioters and looters The hypocrisy is astonishing Our enemies, foreign and domestic, are overjoyed right now.

Pundits comparing the police response: Always the race card (COLOR BLIND) For how long did DC burn under the thumb of BLM? A woman was intentionally shot and killed. She was a white, 35 yo veteran. If BLM had done this, it would have been a much more dangerous affair. Look at how quickly and peacefully everyone left when the police told them to vs BLM, CHAZ/CHOP, etc.

Strange things: Disclaimer: some regular people got sucked into this thing, no doubt. ANTIFA ANTIFA He’s antifa someone has to stop him Trump supported take dude down and crowd cheers This was the most raw, organic, and honest indicator to me of what the crowd’s intentions were Dude with horns on his head DEBUNKED Photos of him at a BLM rally in 2020, tats confirm its him Many people in trump gear protecting police officers Officers letting people in: Video leading up to Ashli’s death demonstrates this too: Selfies with the police inside capital

This was not organic Pipe bombs at RNC and DNC Malatovs in a car nearby radios, ropes, glass breaking equipment Witness testimony of rioter convos talking about how to get people upset What’s the difference between this and BLM?

Can America Do Better In 2021? Jan 04, 2021

Show notes

First Episode of 2021!!!!! We made it!

Lots to celebrate this year for our show:

We launched our membership program it’s been a learning experience Shooting to get more to our members for 2021 Interviewing The Badge Life’s founder tomorrow so giveaway will be happening very soon! Shout outs! Go to PATREON.com/policeacademypodcast to check out our member options and make 2021 an even better year. Our goal is to double our current membership this year. Do good: by supporting law enforcement and loving others Be strong: get into better shape, mentally and physically. It matters. Fear Nothing: Get after the big things in life you’re too afraid to tackle!

Our reach continues to grow When publications like the NYT are contacting us for comment, this is a good sign Listeners are constantly sharing with their co-workers, friends and family. This is one of the best ways to support the show and make a difference!

We have transitioned into a more in-your-face, no-nonsense approach The time for mincing words is over There is no one approach to reaching everyone. Ours has changed to better reflect the perspective of law enforcement across the United States as we are now a voice for them.

What do you want to work on this year? Goals you want to achieve, what milestones do you want to reach? Let us know on our facebook page, Parler account, or on our private members-only server via patreon.com.

Collective Resolutions for America in 2021:

George Floyd

When an in-custody subject goes unconscious and loses pulse, render aid. Pretty basic.

Let’s “follow the science”. When someone dies who has enough fentanyl in their system to kill a horse, maybe racism didn’t kill them…

Rayshard Brooks:

Let’s commit to avoiding Wendy’s drive-throughs while highly intoxicated.

Also don’t try to tase cops… lets do better on that

Lets not glorify shitbags that victimize minorities as a living:

Kenosha Wisconsin: Jacob Blake: rapist fighting with cops with a knife in his hand… This is called being a victim of stupidism, not racism.

Omaha NE: James Scurlock: shot while violently assaulting (choking out) legitimate business owner and victim, Jacob Gardner. Gardner was eventually charged with manslaughter in a political lynching and committed suicide. The victim, because he was white, was not protected by the law as promised by our constitution. We can do better.

Let’s give everyone a little more grace, including ourselves. We all screw up and need that from time to time. We can all do better, love more, give more, take less. Selfishness, in my estimation, the #1 cause of all human struggle. Take care of yourself but bring others along with you if you can.

Personally I’m shooting for the following:

Spend more quality time with my kids and wife.

Give more to our members.

Become a better leader (and finish the damn book!)

Crush the LSAT.

Be more like Jesus.

Coming up:

interview with the founder of The Badge Life who donated 10 free shirts to our members.

Interview with retired coast guard and border patrol agent

More no nonsense, fact and logic based analysis of all things police!

Show notes

What is wrong with the police in America? Does Black Lives Matter Know? The Media? Anitfa? Progressives, liberals, democrats, republicans, libertarians?

WHAT DO YOU WANT FROM US!?! Dec 07, 2020

Show notes

Police officers are many things. They are expected to handle all of society’s problems, without error. As this officer points out though, this is not possible, yet we are treated as if it is. When cops make a mistake, why aren’t they treated the same way doctors are when they do the same?
