No, not that rush.  The rush of being a drug-arrest stud, , Andrew Hawkes can make you the envy of your department, hauling in the “Mother Load!”*

Oh, baby, baby.  Just reading this stuff gets the juices flowing, Andy.  Tell me more, blue brother, tell me more.

Tip #3:   “If you really want to be successful at highway drug interdiction then turn OFF your radar.  DRUG HAULERS DON’T SPEED!”

 

 

 

Many rookie police officers often ask me:

 

Q: “Should I really turn off my radar?”

 

A:  “Yes! By looking down at your radar you are missing 

       indicators that are passing you by on the highway.”

Oh no, this guy knows all the tricks.  He can turn the lamest brown-bagger into Super Drug Interdiction Cop.  But what’s in it for me?

So what’s in it for me?

 

• Make huge drug busts like clockwork

• Stop wasting time on small time offenders

• Get recognized by your peers

• Do your part to protect our children

• Make a REAL impact in the war on drugs

• Earn the reputation as a top interdiction officer

• Get promoted up the ranks fast

• Help your department get media exposure

• Seize cash and vehicles

• Become a hard-core interdiction officer

• Feel the rush of finding the Mother Load!

Of course, another easy way to get media exposure is to shoot some mutt on the ground in the back when the cameras are on me.  Oh, you meant good exposure.  Never mind.

Just in case you thought only lawyers had to put up with the barrage of marketers trying to make a quick buck off your backs, I thought you should know that cops are now open game.  So if you’ve got anything you think you can sell to a cop who wants a quick promotion, a reputation as a top interdiction officer or just wants to feel the rush, the time looks ripe to move forward.

The good news is that drug-arrest studs won’t be wasting their time on “small time offenders,” which I believe is code for fellow cops.

* My wonderful editor, Marilou, can’t stand that I’m repeating Andrew Hawkes’ mistaken spelling of “mother lode” as “load”, and so she’s forcing me to write something so no one thinks she failed to correct it.  Don’t blame me.  It’s Hawkes’ spelling.
