Not true. There are quite a few cops with law degrees. It tends to get you right in the door at a higher level.

Typical lawyer pay also isn't as good as you might think. There's a few partners at major firms who make bank, but they're sitting on a pile of kids a few years out of school and struggling to make their student loan payments. Pay varies wildly by practice, too. Want to get involved in civil rights organizations? That's great and all, but you're not going to be paid well.
