Police education requirements. In North America, there are like hundreds of different police forces with vastly different requirements. Some will hire highschool dropouts while others require a university education.
Oh they have standard training. That one guy who goes around training them all they will have the best sex of their life after they kill someone. See, nothing to worry about perfectly trained!
False. Police agencies are the only institutions legally allowed to discriminate based on intelligence when it comes to hiring. Jordan v. City of New London set the precedent that its okay for police forces to refuse to hire a person because they are too smart. The reasoning in court was that those who are too intelligent face the risk of finding the work boring or becoming distracted by issues outside of the scope of their work. What that means from a practical standpoint is that they want dumb, obedient candidates for police positions rather than logical critical thinking individuals who might actually follow the law over orders from superiors. Its the same thing in the military too.
In the face of the facts, university education is probably more often a disqualification for actual law enforcement.
As I said, it varies depending on the police agency. The RNC in Newfoundland requires a university education. I noted in my comment that I was referring to all of North America
