Okay folks here is the deal. Everyone may have a different opinion or feel on the issues that can relate to this situation, but that doesn't mean that we have to go on the offensive and take things personally that they say in regards to to any issue. Lets please keep things civil. Thanks

isn't that discrimination to not hire someone because of mental illness?

No if you do not pass the standard MMPI, CPI, verbal exam or other test deemed by the state. Yes, I am a retired Deputy sheriff. There is also an approved list of medications allowed as well as disallowed. Those will be evaluated as well.

I am not arguing with you. I'm just telling you how things work as someone with experience in the field that you are interested in. You seem to take it very negatively when people say things that you don't like or don't agree with. If you're serious about being a cop some day, that's something you need to work on.

Leaving this thread now. If you'd like career advice, you are welcome to PM me.

its not about not liking or disagreeing with what u say...its about u making false assumptions and generalizations that aren't backed up by facts

basically you've implied mentally ill people are dangerous and suicidal...and dont get the fact many people who are dangerous or suicudal aren't even diagnosed with a mental illness and are not on psych meds and dont see a psychiatrist

I've had enough of belligerent rants.
