NYPD Applications
This is indicative of a nationwide trend, even if no one is covering it much:
The number of candidates testing to become New York City Police Department (NYPD) officers has reportedly dwindled in recent years, leaving the Democrat-run city scrambling to fill those positions.
The number of candidates has shrunk over the past eight years, the New York Post reported on Saturday. In 2017, the number of prospective officers was 18,000 but has decreased to 8,000.
That is a 55 percent drop, according to data from the union known as the Police Benevolent Association.
A seasoned Brooklyn officer told the outlet that officers are telling people not to take the job because “You’ll be worked to the bone, attacked by perps and politicians and hammered with nonsense complaints and ticky-tack discipline.”
For some odd reason though, this isn't as big a problem in the reddish portion of the nation. In fact, sizable percentages of those leaving blue state / blue city $hitholes are ending up in right-leaning jurisdictions where they aren't going to be indicted, fired or jailed for doing the job they were hired to do.
It's so very odd.

You can just image the DEI hiring that will be happening.
The quality of people they will be hiring in blue, SHIT-HOLE cities will be terrible.
Just look back 44 years ago and look at the REAL police in CHICAGO. Everyone looked sharp (Vietnam vets) and were in the SAME clean uniform:

Aside from COVID/Biden, we’ve had a good economy for over 10-12 years. Unemployment at 4% or less for YEARS is unheard of. The nature of jobs has changed too (people making huge money playing Fortnite, posting your escapades on OnlyFans, podcasting, reselling PS5 and Sneakers (if you’re a 1).
A good recession would cure a lot this crap. Unemployment needs to be a good 6-8%, a good housing bust too.
Problem solved.
That's odd, thought those illegals were going to do the jobs Americans won't do...
Well the good news if you go to NYPD is that you can trade sex for money and promotions with a DEI boss.Chicago is the same way. It's a cultural thang.
OEMC needs a Jessica Tisch.
Chicago stands out with Mayor BLM Johnson, Governor Pritzker and New York with Mayor Adams and Governor Hochul as probably the two worst areas to have these four numbskulls to work under as law enforcement officers. Yes there are others just as bad. Seeing what the Democrats have done to these two cities is disgusting.
Strange... better appoint a blue ribbon commission to take 5 years and $12 mil to look into it and write a report...
What exactly do you mean doing the job you were meant to do?
Chicago is about the same.
Who would have thought 🤔
Smart cops are leaving. This creates a problem because what’s left are not sharpest knives in drawer. Lots of DEI who only qualified with lower standards. Look around at roll call, and evaluate the physical makeup of the troops. Lots of candidates for sever weight look clinics. The press conferences are a joke with tons of DEI flab in background.
A thankless job for sure
He said perps. I guess it is OK since he's from Brooklyn.
Everything democrats touch or involved with turns to shit in record time nowadays
Police officers are leaving the twin cities in minnesota to go to work in police appreciating south dakota.If you are already used to the cold you might as go where you are warmly received!lol
Retired in February of 2020 and working in Middle Tennessee since then. Gave up all my rank and started over. I have been here for almost 5 years and best thing I and we (the family) ever did. The community support is amazing, great equipment and YES even support from Command. No union is only downside but still the best career ever. Gave me a nice recharge. 31 years and counting
I understand we need new officers to continue to pay into the pension system however over the last year I have met several kids working out at the same gym as me and learned they we're in different stages of the hiring process for Chicago. At some point over time I would sit them down in the gym and have a heart to heart with them and or their parents if I discovered the parents also worked out at the gym. I know for certain out of the 11 kids only 1 continued to go forward with the process and that one did discontinued with Chicago and went to the suburbs. I retired early 2024 and will continue to discourage anyone from joining CPD. To describe the department in short would be to say the department sets up up for failure. I redirect all the kids to the trades, go to the trades and get out of the city if not the state.
Working in a red state like Texas ain’t all that tbh, they are very pro police until it comes time to pay you, they pay like shit and have no union. Cry about Chicago NYPD, SF and LA but they pay top dollar and believe it or not, difficult to be fired unless you do something completely stupid.
Ferguson Floyd effect.Big Blue slave plantations want to go back to tribal law.
The bastards in New York, just like the bastards running Chicago and other leftist shitholes have found a way to make good on their promises to defund the police. Make things so miserable on the job that NO ONE WANTS TO TAKE THE JOB. Same objective. Same results.
O.T. The honor of getting the Presidential Medal of Freedom just went down the toilet. Even Cracker Jacks isn’t interested.
If you had parents like this, it would be abuse, yet you are to serve & protect and get crapped on. Then have it rubbed in your face? Police, any profession is not what it was 30/40/50 years ago. The idiot at the store can't make change, my replacements in my job called me a "dinosaur." One looks at who-what replaced. Since when was pride in a job well done replaced with lackluster, and this is the new norm? Dumb a society down more, and this is what you get.
I’d like to see the same stats for CPD during the same time period
SSC:
Here is an interesting story involving ICE T from Law & Order mother fucking the police ... the piece of Human shit !!
https://www.tmz.com/2025/01/03/ice-t-heated-confrontation-with-police-officer-who-pulled-him-over-in-new-jersey/
Same deal in Chicago. All reports should be taken by AI at callback with stripped PO’s correcting the product. Drones and robots with cameras, speakers, and tasers should respond to all calls for service with po’s behind the cameras in SDSC rooms.
Tier one police that can climb over 6 ft walls and are squared away should be doing old school policing with no name tags or star numbers. Those police are all camera’s up so they should then be paid sgt pay in the new reality.
Thats because of the liberal asshole democRats
Yep
Thank you. I’ve done the same. Only time I would encourage anyone to join is if they have juice. Otherwise it’s pointless.
if they leave they won't get felony floyd day off in South Dakota
you mean like getting fired for shooting an offender pointing a gun at you?? that kind of stupid?
God Bless the Old School REAL Chicago Po-lice !!!
Great Shit !!!
So a good recession would bring in candidates who couldn't get a job else where? Just what is needed. No. I started in the 70's no it wasn't a last resort job.
Oh please. I came on the job when a lot of Vietnam Vets were in their last decade on the job. Many of them could have given a shit about uniform standards. In fact when they came on, many of the old timers thought they with their longer hairstyles and mustaches didn’t cut it. I fondly remember all those guys talking about their “weed smoking” days prior to the job. Stop idealizing it. As for hiring standards, yeah I agree but how do you explain hires like a “Kaporis?” Which happened over 20 years ago. You explain it like anything else “a favor” was done in return for something else in order for somebody to get hired & that someone should’ve never been hired. I worked in a district where I remember an ex military officer (not Vietnam or any war vet)& let’s just say every decent boss hated him. His crew cut and eternally creased pants didn’t mitigate that he was a dumb jag off. He’s lucky he didn’t get fired or end up in jail for some of the dumb shit he did with his “crew cut” neat as a pin partner (who yeah eventually did get fired for stalking). There have always been piss poor hires. Any officer with his head screwed on straight has never really wanted their kid on this job. Corruption has always existed, but yeah is hiring only hire on 5 foot, 90 pound Hispanic females or aspiring “rappers” with anti police views related to some boss going to make it a better department? No, it won’t. The one thing this department has always done is kill the spirit of the workers and lift the “connected” dog asses. Same game, different players.
When I applied, it was 1990 recession. Over 40,000 applicants if I remember. But yeah, I don’t think even a recession would change who this department wants on the job now. They think the cure all for never having another George Floyd incident is hiring only 5 foot tall 90 pound females or liberals with college degrees who can’t wait to get their inside M-F 2nd watch spot.
Very good advice. I tell people the same thing. Do NOT join CPD and going to a trade school would be extremely rewarding.
I also retired from a big city and went on to work in a small town. It’s amazing how differently you are treated by the public. At first i wasn’t used to it when i got here. Residents of all ages-even teenagers-wave when you go by and I’ve also been invited over for thanksgiving and Christmas dinner several times if I was on duty. My experience in the big city would never allow me to accept such an invitation. Nonetheless, it has been quite the positive experience thus far
100% true. How many leave then come back for the dough.
Oh yeah, the gig economy, driving for uber, delivering for doordash, is doing wonders for many’s lot in life. They can work two or three little jobs, it is almost like one real job.
at least the nypd does not have to live in ny
Fewer police, more cops not doing their job, open season for criminals. Tax paying citizens flee, business flees, and a bunch of politicians saying "not my fault ." Don't fix it this time, let it descend into madness. Then wall it up and America can move on.
OT. HR 82 becomes law today!!

I came on in 1986 and was very fortunate to have been trained by and worked with many of those Vietnam vets.
These guys were the real deal & I had the pleasure to work with TW, one of the officers in this clip.
It was different age but I had the greatest time & met the greatest people and unlike these days, we had some really great bosses.
You don't understand how pensions are funded/paid.
Oooh, did you say a blue ribbon commission? No sir, you can’t get any better than that!
Yup! Well said...
When my son EOS'd from the Marine Infantry he was asking me about CPD and the Tact squad because 2 of my brothers were in law enforcement... I advised him to go CFD because the world has changed...
Ok now, lay down the pipe and crawl back under your shit-stained rock.
DEI hires will fill the void.
Every retired cop I work with including myself, says they loved the job, but are so glad to get out, seeing what it is now. Every guy on now has some boy wonder admin guy watching their bodycam video all day, and bitching about what the guys doing the job 'should' have done. No wonder guys don't want to apply for that.
CSPAN...President Biden Signs Social Security Fairness Act
President Biden signs the Social Security Fairness Act at the White House.
This must be the one and only 2520R! Good to see you're doing well Sean. All the best to you and enjoy the fresh air.
Or turd world illegals...
Not anymore, they throw time around like candy and try to fire you for everything, thanks to COPA.
OT Biden signed.
Biden signed the Social Security Fairness bill.
I will NEVER happen.. huh?

More cops working the front desks, HQ, academy, BS Teams, and other hiding spots.
Vietnam vets, WW2/Korea guys thought they were long haired dope smoking pussies who were in the news constantly for numerous crimes supposedly related to their time in Vietnam. I remember guys wore short hair wigs on duty. Supervisors always sucked on CPD unless you had a chinaman and most were on the take. Nothing was done to bad supervisors because the guy you handed out discipline to might be your supervisor next month. Things are worse but that's driven by the media hatred of police that politicians use for cover while the media goes after low hanging fruit like individual police misconduct. Two terrorist attacks were perpetrated by US Army soldiers if they had been police for even one day that is all we would be hearing about. It was a good job especially if your connected or a knee bender for the rest of us we just made it work like any job so take off the rose-colored glasses it's a fucking job that's why we actually called it the JOB as in "are you on the job"?
Check out: Lawenforcement.vbulletin.net Ice-T pulled over on traffic stop like savage 01/2/25
Not only is Ice-T a jag but so is the sap sergeant!
We have stopped this prick, aka Tracey Marrow in the past. He likes to hang around in River North. One time he had a guy with him who did 20 yrs for murder. Marrow liked to hang with the pimp “Bishop” Magic Don Juan aka Donald Campbell from the West Side. They were also frequenters of the “Players Balls” in Chicago and other cities. Don Juan won’t give you any trouble but Ice-T will. T usually has somebody following him with a camera. He is really an arrogant person when dealing with the police. It’s ironic that the movie studios having him play a police officer. If you notice when he has any dialog it’s only about a five word sentence when the other actors have longer lines. It appears he does not have the ability to memorize scripts.
You know, Quasimodo and Idiocracy predicted this./s
You think that’s looking sharp? The shaggy hair, the porn staches. I lived through that era, I forgot how bad everybody looked. Must really be bad now if you think of that as some golden era compared to now. Granted it is nice to see cops in real uniforms, with no baseball hats and “beanies”.
O.T. - Biden
(The Drooling Vegetable!) signed the WEP elimination!
It's so very odd.
Indeed and yet the common ghetto $hit bird that exists in these fine States always plays stupid games and most often wins stupid prizes...
SS bill signed
Now social security can go bankrupt even faster, typical democrat move, buy your vote by stealing money from future generations.

Life is good. Stay safe
finally, after 40 years of rumors,,, it's done
OFF TOPIC- the Corpse President has JUST SIGNED the WEP-ELIMINATED bill in DC on Sunday, Jan 05, 2025. FINALLY! Only took 42 years to undo the damage done by Dan Rostenkowski in 1983! Am sure he didn’t do it to help first responders, maybe trying to get something as a legacy out of his absolutely failed four years.
Some of you younguns might not know back in the early 90s, in addition to rap, he had a band that also did kind of punk rock and they made a song called “Cop Killer”. The right, and Charleston Heston in particular as head of NRA, made such a fuss it turned into a big national controversy and he became one of the most hated vilified celebrities of the time. So combine that with his rap background and it is surprising he ended up playing a cop but not surprising he
has an attitude when dealing with cops.
His defense of song was that it was from the cop killers point of view, he wasn’t justifying it he said. But any cop that listens to rap, you’re supporting people who hate you.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cop_Killer_(song)
Most of you guys complain and you know very well that after 20 plus yrs you do what ever you want and the bosses don't even bother you so much anymore, me I've got 22 yrs and pushing a beat car my entire career and yes in thee ghetto. That being said, I always tell new hires to work this job to their convenience and not for the bosses. The job itself is what you make of it, yes there are good days and bad. I also give them advice on making good financial moves so they retire early and have a big bank account for retirement. What I don't get is why so many guys and gals retire and end up working afterwards and especially bad jobs. God Bless guys and Happy retirement to those that made it.....
The tango in NOLA was a paper pushing IT geek with 4 ghetto wives sucking him dry. From North Texas, about as Mooslim as Adbul-Jabbar. The LV incident? Anyone that believes the Fibbers story on that one deserves to buy shares in the Brooklyn Bridge. Anymore thoughts in that empty skull of yours?
Reason I never watched that show is that jagoff. Asshole who wrote a song "Cop Killa" playing the Police on TV.
You described a "Ponzi " scheme.
Still the easiest job in Chicago. I love it
No union must suck!
I'd pay allot of money to go back to 1982.
Dude, there are bots patrolling cities. Look up Richtech Robotics. The stock is going through the roof. Also look at Addison, Illinois they are having Axon do the reports. The future is here!
NYPD Police Officers can retire at any age with 20 years of service. Why can’t CPD have the same pension,why is it legal to have a two tiered pension fund for new police officers. Same job,making same contributions with less benefits. This should be changed.
