[VN Boards Archive]

Welcome to the Vault Network forum archive.

This is not a complete archive, time didn't allot us the opportunity to properly backup the majority of the boards deemed "expendable". Most boards on this list have at least 20-40 pages archived (non-logged in pages, 15 topics per page).

Popular boards may have as many as 250 pages archived at 50 topics per page, while others deemed of historical signifigance may be archived in their entirety.

We may not agree with how the board shutdown was managed, but we've done what we could to preserve some of its history in lieu of that.

Please enjoy the archive.

	http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gziIagLvzz0&sns=fb Amazing what they go through on a daily basis. The stress they are under, the hell they need to deal. This is why i tend to give them the benefit of the doubt. A few bad apples seem to give the entire dept a bad wrap yet the majority of them do whats right and protect our slimy little asses for very little pay. -----signature----- A Nation of Sheep Breeds a Government of Wolves!

	Little pay? Cops get paid very well. They do a shit job but they aren't doing it for very little pay. I have a LOT of law enforcement as clients I know what they make in NY, MA, and CT. Local, county, state, and federally. -----signature----- We have enough youth. What we need is a fountain of smart. Drill Anwar! Kapie Drevid in Tanks

	Let me rephrase that. For the shit they have to deal with daily and the risks they take, they dont get payed enough. Basic street cop where i live starts off at 28k a year. -----signature----- A Nation of Sheep Breeds a Government of Wolves!

	I am not sure where you are from so I am not going to argue about basic pay, but I'll refer you to this. http://policeofficersalary.com/starting-police-officer-salary-php/ The average starting salary for a police officer in the United States is $51,410 per year, according to police officer salary statistics That seems a little high for 1st year cops, but you don't see many first year cops. I think that number probably includes ALL first year law enforcement. Now in MA, CT, and NY I see cops after a couple of years in the high 70s. State police are over 100k. I agree with you 100% they do a shit job I would never want to do, but they are paid very well. -----signature----- We have enough youth. What we need is a fountain of smart. Drill Anwar!

That was in a department of around 150, not a huge area but not Mayberry either. -----signature----- My folks went on vacation and all I got was this lousy sig.
