If i smoked marijuana regularly when i was 17, could it still be possible to join the police force?
|
I wanna be a cop, but im pretty worried i might not make the requirements because i smoked weed on a day to day basis when i was 17. i will most likely try to join when i am 25. Would that kill my chances?

Why would that harm your chances? If you weren't convicted of any felonies relating to that, then no, you're good. |

It will depend on how many uses you had. Every dept is different. If you smoked it let's say over 50 times than you will never be a cop. Try and lie and say you have only done it a couple of times. Why not? You won't be able tot even test if you tell the truth but trust me the polygraph will get you. |

No, as long as you're honest about it, it won't kill your chances. However bad grammar and spelling will definitely kill your chances. Take some English classes and learn how to capitalize words and write like an adult if you want them to take you seriously. |

Of course, if you become a cop you will graduate to becoming a dealer. |

It depends if you ever been charged with possession, other than that your ok. as long as you dont continue to smoke. |
