Why are all these dirty cops in the news lately getting suspended with pay? You got one out there raping women, and another out there committing armed robbery, but they still get to keep their paychequ that comes out of the pockets of taxpayers! The typical police salary in Nova Scotia is 12 percent above the national average—they earn almost $70,000 a year! And they’re out there raping and robbing and getting paid suspensions when they get caught. Unbelievable. Meanwhile, the rest of us honest chumps have to live off a measly 30 grand. Maybe I should try a life of crime.
