Total joke. But be honest. Like if they ask “do you find 15 year old girls sexually attractive” I answered yes because there’s nothing wrong with that. “Would you ever date a 15 year old girl if it was legal?” I said no because their brain is still childlike and that would be wrong.
“Have you ever stolen” “yes.” Do you watch porn “no I find it distasteful.” “Have you ever said anything racist” yes, I have a dark sense of humor with my friends.” “Ever done drugs?” “Yes, including hard drugs in high school.”

That one pissed me off. And I said as much when I called and complained about it. Found out years later that they WANT you to call and complain. They also want the PRIME reason you want to be a cop. I said it was from when I was a kid and someone broke into our house and I refused to go back in and a policeman walked me through the whole house and made sure “the bad guy” was gone. That if I could do something lile that even once in my career for a kid, it would be worth it.
SPOILER: It’s the worst fucking job ever. When they were rolling out body cams I was like “laters!”
