Funny, I lived next to a police officer once. He was the only one with illegal fireworks every New Year's Eve (in Hawaii, where aerial fireworks are illegal).

Now that's true, but I will say that HPD on Oahu are the most professional and legit police officers I've ever had to deal with. I lived in town for six years and had run-ins with the law and no complaints about their behavior, including a couple of times when I thought that surely I would end up being taken advantage of.

Seconded, HPD in my experience have been extraordinarily professional and helpful. 10 year resident of O`ahu.

Fair point, I think they're mostly professional too and have friends who went into HPD, but I've seen enough that are not (grew up there 20 years, Ewa and downtown).
