[QUOTE="yukonjack, post: 2739376, member: 2939"] This kinda good ole boy system runs deep in Oklahoma law enforcement. It's not just the SO's that do this but the PD's as well. I've seen Chiefs hire reserves simply because they were buddies or wanted to give someone a second chance. If a person has been fired from both Podunk PD & Bugtussle PD they don't need to be a reserve anywhere. I have 16 years of reserve experience in Oklahoma and have seen it all. Lots of good reserve officers that fill a real need but quite a few that are disasters waiting to happen. My experience in Alaska is vastly different. They aren't afraid to send ya down the river if you don't measure up. Also they have prohibitions that don't let you use your commission off-duty. No off duty security jobs or anything like that. Absolutely prohibited from accepting any free meals, etc. Oklahoma has got to change how the law enforcement community operates. Or someday the Feds will step in and do it for them. And geez 73 years old is just too old. I wonder what kinda physical fitness standards TCSO has for its officers???? [/QUOTE]
