Postal Police

Anyone know what’s up with Postal Police?

I was driving behind this postal police car today and I thought …how odd.
I mean, I’m sure they do work with regards to mail theft/identity theft/ and funny little white powders sent in the mail and such….

But I just imagine some postal policeman abusing his a-thor-i-tay to give out citations to folks who put their stamps on upside down. Or sideways. Or too much postage. Or not enough postage. Or bulky sized letters. Or addresses without the full zip+4. Or sending mail out to affectionate pseudonyms instead of proper names.

ie: Package of Condoms sent by brown paper mail To: Raving Nympho
ie: Package of Bills, Pictures of Weeping Children etc To: Deadbeat Daddy
ie: Package of Dirty Panties and Soap To: Dirty Cheating Bastard

Would serving for these crimes involve paper cuts on the tongue & stamp licking? Processing lost packages?

Kind of makes you wonder. Or maybe that’s just me.

It is you! The beauity of our operation is, you don’t know what our purpose is about. We like to keep it that way. We love the fact that people like yourself think of these ignorant reasons we are out there.

Did you ever pass by a federal building and see the same white and blue police car, only with a different identification that reads, Federal Protective Services. It’s the same thing. We all carry firearms and we have full police powers in all fifty states and commonwealths. However, for your information, we do not write tickets out to the general public. That’s for the City and State officers to do. Federal officers also have the responsibility to assist State and Local Police forces. Ever been to the Capitol Building, The White House or any other Federal Property? I think not! Who knows, i might of have processed your collar last week and not know you did this blog.

In closing, your free to have papercuts on your tounge & lick all the stamps your little heart desires. However, your sarcastic remarks about my job made me laugh. Ha, Ha. I am a proud Postal Police Officer and i deal with stupid and dumb questions every day. But your blog is a reflection of how ignorant you are to this great Nation and all the Federal Police Officers whether it be the U.S.P.S., Federal Protective Service, The Capitol Police, Immigration and Customs Enforcement ( I.C.E.), DEA, CIA, ATF, etc… We all fall under the Department of Homeland Security. May i ask, what planet are you from? Or is it your just dumb and ignorant.

My late husband was a postal police officer. This blog has got to be one of the most ridiculous things that I have ever heard.

I think a lot of people are confused about what the postal police do. I see them around Boston but never out in the burbs.

RNACOR, if possible, please email me as I am interested in possibly getting into this field of work, but don’t know exactly how I would go about doing that. I would appreciate it greatly.
