Are police officers firefighters?

No, Firefighters actually fight fires, and Police Officers fight crime.However! -In some municipalities (towns) in America, these professions are performed by people that are cross-trained. In fact, one town that I know of has their city employees trained as Police, Fire, AND Emergency Medical Technicians (EMTs are ambulance-riding first-responders) that work three 24-hour shifts per week. So for the first eight hours of their shift, they are Police Officers. The second eight hours they are Firefighters, and the third eight hours of their shift, they are EMTs. Then they get 24 hours off.

How can you meet single police officers?

Police officers are a tight group, but, you could go to the bars to meet some of them. They do have their favorite hang-outs. Beware! Don't be disillusioned by the uniform! Most police officers are good guys, but there is a percentage that uses their power even in their own personal relationships and there is a high percentage of spousal abuse. Police officers work shiftwork and can work long hours depending on the division they are in and also the work can be dangerous. This is no game, so rethink whether you want to 'hunt down that cop!' If you meet one through a friend then it's worth a shot to have a date. There is actually a free dating site called "TheBadge.org" that officers use to meet others in the same line of work. It is a lot easier to meet someone like a nurse who understands the long hours, shift work, stress, etc.
