White or black. If you are are not writing a set amount of speeding tickets a shift and so many a month at RPD. You are considered not doing your job and u are lazy. There was once a former town manager drawing cartoons of a empty basket with a dollar sign. It was given to the chief. That would mean clamp down on your officers to write more tickets. There are many former RPD officers that have been subjected to the constant stress of keeping your ticket numbers up. They also learn that the only thing the town cares about at the end of the day is how much money the town has made. If you plan on a retirement at RPD. Pray one day the State of South Carolina pass a law for the state to collect all traffic fines. This way you want spend all 25 years writing 100 speeding tickets a month for the Town of Ridgeland.

What is the status of the murder investigation's under Chief Woods watch? When will the Town of Ridgeland ever have a black mayor, councilman, or police chief? That should shed some light on black promotions within the Town of Ridgeland.

The comment made by real123 of the black officer being fired for being Lazy. I guess that was his reward for being lazy. I remember a black officer working for the town back in 1995 that wrote more tickets then all the white officers put together. What was his reward? It was nothing. You would think he would get a brick on Main Street engraved with his name. It was that officer that brought in a good chunk of money to help fund that project. The glory went to the politicians on Town Council. They forget about the police officers who wrote close to 400k in traffic fines that year to make the projected revenue.
