You do not have to say anything, but anything you do say may be used against you in a Wetherspoons brawl.
It may harm your defence if you fail to wink now to indicate irony you later rely on in the pub.
I wannabe a cop!
no irony at all, if it wasn't for the whole fucking state thing and upholding class rule i'd love to be a cop, I mean the whole busting each others balls all day thing is cool for a start, then there's the spending days trying to bring down some fucker you've been after for ages. Certainly beats a 9-5 office job.
meh, dont see why (non-cop) detectives might not be around after the revolution - specialists who are good at finding pedophiles and murderers and the like.
not that they do find them for the most part in real life, from what i gather. but it could still be useful for some cases.
gonna go into that post-revolution, revol?

well that's the dream, when i was a kid i liked the idea of working in forensics, i've found out loads of other people did too.
have you ever thought of going into something forensical (probably not a real word) in school, if you havent already? er, and if you have the money/time to spare?
i mean, i dont know a huge bit about it, but i'm sure there must be some forensics-related jobs which arent all coppy.
went to see 'american gangster' last night felt pretty much the same thing. although i would have totally taken the money.
actually from the book 'pushers out' it seems like community activists got up to a fair bit of detective work in getting rid of drug dealers, as well as some argy bargy when it was called for. but no money, or cushy 'get away with murder' card either.
What is so good about The Wire? I watched the 3rd and 4th seasons and I enjoyed it well enough (although the 4th season kind of sucked) but I don't see what's so amazing about it. Is it because I missed the 1st and 2nd seasons? Is it because I don't watch TV so I have nothing to compare it to in order to see that it's amazing relative to what else is on TV?
Actually, given that it's almost solely British people I know who really like it, I suspect it's just a British thing where you people can tell underneath the ridiculous Baltimore accents that those ugly motherfuckers are secretly Brits.
Just watched some of The Wire for the first time and it's fucking excellent but it's making me really wannabe a cop, like a proper wise cracking DI, workking on serious shit not some muppet stopping kids boozing on the street, I wanna be out there bring down the real scum.
