The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

I went to FLETC in 1981.

I was in a mixed 'land management agencies' class.

The course was 10 weeks at that time, but later was extended to 19 weeks. After that you went to a training location in the field for another 6 months before you were considered ready to assume your full duties as an LEO.

So now it is 6 weeks! And then you are on the street? Ridiculous.

And the training in the Immigration and Nationality Act and the Fourth Amendment does not seem to be having much impact.

ICE: unprofessional gang of jack booted thugs.
