Im a LEO in nj. Majored in criminal justice. Doesnt matter what you have a degree in. A college degree is just so they can justify to the public why our salaries are $100,000+
Hiring process was long and competitive. Best advice i can give you is to apply to as many departments as you can, stay...
I got exposed to OC 3x in my life (agency training, police academy, SORT training).. To decon yourself, i swear by johnson's baby soap & shampoo, tear free rinsed with warm water. The water opens up your pores and the soap flushes em clean. So many methods ppl come up with, one of the team guys...

Law abiding citizens should have the right to conceal carry. Im a LEO and as per HR218 i can legally carry in all states. The bad guys i encounter on a daily basis are carrying without CCWs so why make it harder for the law abidibg citizen? Illinois is heading in the right direction
