[kj] (OT) Police Brutality part 2

[Bette Dillinger]

And this man didn't sue?  What is the name of the man?  This sounds specious.  I am not defending any profession, because they all have crazies in them, but IQ tests aren't the way to go in ANY of them (a press rep would be fired if he made the statement the officer was rejected because he was "too smart", I should think..that would be admitting alot!).  We have to look at Emotional IQ, which is sadly lacking in alot of professions.

Years ago here in L.A. there was a guy who was barred from joining the police because after being tested, the Police said he was "too smart"etc.  And after being pressed for clarification the police spokesperson said he would be "too bored" to do his job or stay long at it, and all that because he was, um, "too smart."

I'm not missing the point at all actually, I agreed with Stephen (!), and
cited psychological studies that show the police force attracts a thug
element...
