Remember during the early 90's, one of my favorite shows was "Cops". It was not ica scripted television show or a documentary. Rather it shows the real cops doing their jobs which at times could be very dangerous. Sometimes all they do is just roam their beat till their shift is over or respond quickly when an emergency occurs in their area. You don't know what to expect because there are no scripts but one thing's for sure and that anything can happen once they go out and do their duty. The theme song of the show was taken from Inner Circle's song "Bad Boys".
When you watch the show, you what cops go through everyday. Sometimes it's just another day with no hassle which is good because nobody gets hurt. Other days, they have their hands full resolving conflicts which can still be settled amicably. There are days,however, when they must deal with violent situations and as much as they try to avoid it, someone still gets hurt. Through it all, these guys can't afford to keep their guard down because if they do, the consequences could be very severe.
I guess this show is a good reference to those who aspire to have a career in law enforcement. There's no fancy wise-mouth fashion hollywood actors here. Just guys who do their duty at the risk of their own lives. If you want to be in it just for the badge and uniform, better drop it cause you'll be doing more harm than good. This about serving and protecting people with your life and it's no joke. There are a lot a of bad boys out there and it takes a special breed of people to bring them down which is why the cops who appear in this show get my deepest respect.
