The biggest problem with police in the U.S. is that most of them have the IQ level of a Ford Pinto

and it's only getting worse with the younger generations coming up. Week after week the internet blows up with countless videos of police all across the country beating people, shooting innocent dogs, etc., etc.

when you give someone who has little to no education and the IQ level of a Ford Pinto a badge and a gun and make them above the law, what do you expect to happen?

now that's not to say all police are bad, but the majority of the bad outweigh the good.

\majority of the bad outweigh the good.

Fat cops outweigh the rest of the population

I remember hearing about a lawsuit in California where an guy applying to be a cop was denied employment because his IQ was TOO HIGH. He argued he was being discriminated against because of his intelligence and he actually lost the suit.

I guess they just want dumb asses that are gonna follow orders and not question too much...

same thing in canada most cops were the bullies or the bullied in hs, pill poppers, racist italians and irish, dudes with gr 12 education etc.

most of the good cops are detectives, sergeants etc nikkas with psychology degrees etc.

So we gonna try push for high IQ levels as a requirement for cops now?

You sure you wanna open up that Pandora's box?

THAT AIN'T THE PROBLEM. THE PROBLEM IS THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE POLICE AND THE PUBLIC. THE PUBLIC IS BECOMING MORE AND MORE ANTI GOVERNMENT AND LESS RESPECTFUL OF THAT BADGE. SOME OF THAT IS TOTALLY WARRANTED. PAIR THAT WITH THE FACT THAT A LOT OF EX MILITARY JOIN THE POLICE FORCE AND THERE IS YOUR PROBLEM. THOSE MILITARY GUYS ARE NOT HAVING THAT DISRESPECT FOR AUTHORITY shyt. THEY'LL FOLD YOU LIKE LAUNDRY AND THINK NOTHING OF IT.

WHAT PEOPLE DON'T UNDERSTAND IS WHEN A COP VIOLATES YOUR RIGHTS THE BATTLEFIELD IS NOT AT THE SCENE. THE BATTLEFIELD IS IN COURT. THE LAWSUIT DOES NO GOOD IF ALL THE MONEY GOES TO A TRUST FUND FOR YOUR FATHERLESS CHILDREN. WE DO NEED TO TAKE SOME RESPONSIBILITY FOR OUR OWN ACTIONS TOO.

judging by your negative reputation I know this is likely a troll attempt, but are you legitimately against those with higher education and IQ levels being in the police force?

Most of course are going to go into jobs that pay more, but why would it be a bad thing if someone with a higher IQ was patrolling your neighborhood instead of trigger happy Billy Bob with an 8th grade education and GED?
