Police officers are an important job in USA. Being police is combination of bravery, good will, and helping people. Police is an important job in the USA that I don’t think will be around in 20 years. People need police for reasons (next paragraph).
The job of police officers is to enforce the law by stopping bad people from doing stuff, catching and sending the bad people to jail, and giving tickets. The police also protect the community by doing virtually the same thing.
In order to become a police officer you need to have an education varying from a high school degree to a college degree. Then you gotta file a form to the police station to then start your academy training and then when you finish that you’re good. Then you need to train for 2-3 years.
Being a police officer is Important because you feel good protecting the community and you get rid of people doing bad stuff. The job has some downsides.
Like the fact that you are in constant danger and the rookies sometimes have to work overnight and on weekends which often results in overtime.
The police affect the community by making people feel safe and potentially stop bad people from doing stuff. They also makes people do the law by giving tickets.
Police have to be trained and pass a shooting test in order to use a gun. They have guns because they need to protect themselves. Guns aren’t the only thing police officers use. They use tasers which is a type of electric gun that stuns people when they shoot it (some police academy’s taser the trainees to test them). They also use pepper spray that blinds the person they use it on and a batton that is a stick that they hit people with.
I don’t think the police officers will be around in 20 years because robots (robo cop might happen OK). Robots can assess what to give tickets to, can remotely identify clues and bad guys, the robots won’t be in such danger as people because they are harder to defeat and can be mass produced and don’t actually have lives(also they can be water proof). So without losses and the job being done better I don’t think that police people will be around in 20 years.
