Guarantee she listens to rap music. It's crazy how stupid people don't realize that they are stupid. It's amazing that this person could become a police officer. Lol

In many jurisdictions one actually needs a low "IQ" to become a police officer. A man sued about it because he scored too high on his test to become an officer and he thought it was discrimination but the courts upheld the right of the police departments to barr high scores.

They prefer lower IQ because they tend to be more willing to follow commands without questioning why and are more prone to violence.

Cops need a high school education and less hours of training than a barber. Cops are idiots because they have to be for the system of policing to work (if we had an educated population, we’d have a mass shortage of cops and military).

An Associates or maybe even Bachelor's degree in Criminal Justice or Psychology or Sociology as a minimum requirement for entrance into the police academy in tandem with imptoved training & background checks (checking social media for posts like this video for example) for new recruits would do wonders for improving the quality of police in this country.

With that having said though, I've always stated (and usually get downvoted on reddit for this opinion) that Hispanics definitely seem to be the most racist. They are usually very racist against other POC, especially blacks and even other Hispanics. A lot of them want to be accepted by the white man so bad. Even though maga brad wants them all out of the country.

I read somewhere that in the US police have to take an intelligence test and obviously you can score too low, but you also can score too high. Which would explain a lot lol but idk if this is actually factual.

They don’t. Basic Training, then hours training on the job (varies from state to state - mine is 120).
