Post #19.
It's bound to happen sooner or later.
What was it?

I'm too lazy to go back again and look.
Another problem with dumb cops is arresting
the wrong person because they fail to verify
who the person is. The guy arrested should
never have provided ID.
Notice how the cop mutes his bodycam so
as to avoid being monitored.
Such ignorant careless mouth breathers
shouldn't have power over anyone.

That is a sample of one and thus meaningless for the world as such.
Become a landlord, & you'll get to know
many judges, lawyers, & cops.
Cops require delicate handling when they
misbehave, eg, getting them to stop blocking
the driveway to an office building, dealing
with crimes that tenants commit.
Dumb cops even pose a risk to taxpayers when
moonlighting as security for people & businesses.
The cops get paid while providing no service to
their department, but when they act improperly,
the government gets sued. And they can legally
skip wearing a bodycam while working privately.
This video channel is run by a former cop. He's
explained that he received insufficient training
in the law & civil liberties. He learned only after
being hired, doing so on his own.

I recall the IQ issue from a while ago, but recently ran across this article....
Excerpted....
Court OKs Barring Smart People From Becoming Cops (Really)
Reader Ryan McCormick sends this amazing story from ABC News. Robert Jordan wanted to be a cop and he applied for a job as such in New London,reason.com
Jordan sued for discrimination but to no avail. Here's what a federal court ruled:
Too smart for police work, "Jordan has worked as a prison guard since he took the test."
@Wu Wei might find it fascinating that even a lowly engineer
would be rejected as too smart to be a cop. An interesting
aspect of the average 104 IQ claim is that this means that
nearly half of cops are below average (100 IQ).
So we're giving a couple hundred thousand below average
intelligence people a gun & a license to kill to civilians.
And this after training that's less than what's required
to be a mechanic, real estate agent, or cosmetologist.

U.S. law enforcement officers 2023 | Statista
How many police officers are there in the U.S.? In 2023, there were 720,652 full-time law enforcement officers employed in the United States, an increase from 708,001 the previous year.www.statista.com
I see your link is from 2013. The original is from 2000.
Court OKs Barring High IQs for Cops
My point... I wonder if he was still working as a prison guard 13 years later.
It's been going on for at least a quarter of a century.
Cops....they remind me of this.
Since when did 125 IQ become slightly above average? Which police departments exclude such people? And how do you know that alone was the reason for their exclusion?
What percentage of cops are unaware of these things? And how do you know the ones that appear to not know, do know but are just being jerks and breaking the rules?
Excessive violence does not equal ignorance of the law. Consider for a moment that the cop is just a jerk. The smartest people in the world can be jerks ya know!

Clinically, scientifically, statistically, the average IQ is between 85 and 115.

That's just not the case. At all.
Amd try actually reading. Rev has not put forth an idea that all cops should be of a high intelligence but rather its bogus they exclude those of a high intelligence.

One problem I see is those with a lower IQ are more likely to be integrated into the cop culture.
Also you watch some of these Youtube videos and the police often don't seem to understand the law too well.
The first year they get assigned a training officer so the department culture just gets passed down.
Basically the path of least hassle for those running the show. And who cares about being sued, it is just tax payer money.

Here's the difference. My IQ is 148, amd, yes, I can be a *****. But I lack the power that a cop has and can't totally ruin a life like a cop can.

Is that why I've been pulled over for my legal underbidy lights?

Must be nice. I've been harassed and put in a couple cruisers because I'm autistic amd those bozos thought I was intoxicated solely based on how I talk.
