* 1 in 6 uniformed members of the NYPD are Detectives. A Detective’s (3rd Grade) average earning is $100,000
*1 in 7 uniformed members of the NYPD are Sergeants. A Sergeant’s average earning is $100,000
*1 in 20 uniformed members of the NYPD are Lieutenants. A Lieutenant’s average earning is $122,000

I believe that makes for roughly 30-35% of the force earning 100k+ a year. If accurate, that sounds pretty darn good to me! :)
 
The next time you feel the need to slander the NYPD, show some guts and do it in your own words, instead of pretending someone on the spot would know this.

I'm an old New Yorker myself, and I worked with these people. You and your old friend don't come close to the courage and integrity I've seen from them.

Oh!!! Kind of touchy, aren't you??? :jerkit:

Yep, a married couple would have a household income of $200,000, roughly 400% higher than the national average. By comparison, only 19% of American households earn more than $100,000.

This is a seriou discussion in the Community Center, not a flamefest in Whine & Cheese, so yes, I am touchy. That smiley doesn't go over as well here, either.

Maybe you forgot what they say about tone of voice over the internet.
 
police and fire carry the responsibility of protecting your life and your property.

what other profession is directly tasked with these duties, not to mention on a civil servants pay?

I spent many decades in the US military ... I'm a retired 'lifer.'

And you won't catch me disparaging the police or firefighters. Those are hellishly difficult jobs and they are definitely life-threatening.
 
This thread is locked. I will not have members insulting each other and disregarding the rules of this forum. This started out as a civil discussion and quickly based on the actions of a few who chose to forget what forum they were posting in. You are lucky I'm tired and had a long day otherwise my infraction button would be very busy tonight. :mad:
