Am i qualified to work as a cop in texas?

Question

Ok first of all, im 20 and almost 21
I already finished a semester of criminal justice in college but i left school
Now i got tattoos in both of my arms ,the side of my neck and ill possibly be getting more
The thing is i tend to hang out with the wrong people, and for the last years the cops have been stopping me every time they see me, but they never find a reason to take me to jail
I have never been arrested
I have been a smart guy always
Now i guess my question is:

Do you think any if these would.interfere if i applied for a job as a police officer?
Because i been thinking of going back to school and finishing the year and a half i got left for my criminal justice associates degree
I just want to know if i would be disqualifed right away , to avoid wasting my time at school if thats the case

As long as you're willing to tattoo your billy club on a black persons face you should be all set.

You have no more intention of becoming a police officer than Jimmy Whispers does

And even if you did your background would deny you employment

And TROLLS do not make good police officers anyway because they smell and that would mess up the police vehicle for REAl COPS to work in

The tats may cause a problem if visible in uniform. The hiring requirements education wise vary by department. From HS diploma to BA/BS degree.
