You should read public comments about the muscled up cops. They are criticized too.

The heavy cops are criticized for being heavy.

The skinny cops are told they should muscle up.

The muscular cops are called roid ragers, compensators etc.

Can you post a picture of an officer you consider to be the ideal officer build?

Who said anything about being "muscled up"? I was commenting on weight/height proportionate. Also, the complaint with muscled up cops isn't their physique but their actions. Some are obviously using 'roids and their attitude shows that.
PS What do you do for a living since you're taking this awfully personal?



I am not taking this personally at all. My point was that whatever a cop's build is, people will criticize it. Just another place in which a cop can't win in the eyes of the public.
