why do you keep posting this over and over again in this thread? The department applied this rule to attempt to reduce turnover, not because they literally want dumb cops.
- giantg2 4y agoI never said they want dumb cops, just that the person posting is not who they want because they're too smart. The way they limit turnover is by selecting for normal IQs so they don't get bored and leave.
- mandmandam 4y agoSeems like the smart thing to do would be to give the "too smart" people training to tackle more interesting and important problems - like white collar crime, tax loopholes, internal corruption, etc. I'll give you three guesses why that's never even floated as an option...
- giantg2 4y agoTo be fair, the white collar crime is mostly tackled by other organizations who have investigators but aren't typical police. Like the FBI (accountants comprise a large percentage of agents), SEC, IRS, etc.
