Hypanius, allthough i like the original idea it seems everyone just loves their bank account too much to accept it.
If you really want to put away with all the criminal scum,
have cop/civ life be one,
have a real application form,
manditory training (pretty sure there are enough sgt's in just about every timezone, if not, you might really want to go get them)
Real loadout (were up against 7.62 and the advantage of an ambush, ghillisuits and plate carriers, actually trained and coordinated infantery, sometimes even MRAPS and .50's)(we have numbers of stupid and impatient without experience or sufficient armour. Sure we are police, but we have the tasks of a militairy (almost))
