Jeez! Makes me want to move out of the USA.
I wonder if my mullet-having, drug-using, wife-beating, drunk-driving, rude in public attitude will be too much to put under "Specail Abilities" on my Alaska State Troopers application.....
I don't want to be over-qualified, I'm jobless you know? Is this my last resort like the military as a teen?!

The real job of the police is not to protect the citizens from the criminals but the other way round so to say. The police has to protect the rich from the poor or the elite from the subjects. And they are doing it pretty well.

Hell, I may even be entry level to detective just for being an honest criminal and my determination to continue myhem amoung civil folk.
Oh man Stevens! She's ugly and told me I have a little mans complex.... You want to shoot her or should I?? Rock, paper, scissors??

I attend college with guys pursuing criminal justice majors...
A cj is down there with vet assistant and theory of basketball. An associates in CJ is like going to hamburger university.
Nothing easy about it with an accredited school, anyway.
Whoa dude, the classes are mostly in the 101 category.. English 101, Psych 101, Biology 101, etc.. pretty much any associates can EASILY be obtained by someone with 3 brain cells.
And that is from someone who went to Irvine, U of I Urbana, and USD
Well Hanz, if that was the memory you have of your school experience, it sure is a world away from the courses I'm in and have been now for just over 60 credit hours worth. Worlds apart. To each their own tho..and I'm glad you had an easier ride in California's University system.

From the article someone linked above about the requirement being in the area of a Downie now, that would totally rock.
Can you imagine Down's Syndrome policemen? They wouldn't need sidearms because they couldn't get mad enough to use them. There wouldn't BE any more beatings. You'd get a hug with every traffic ticket. Of course, your arrest rate would go way down, I suppose.
using an A.S. degree as a means to gauge someone's Intellect is suspect and flawed. Associates degrees are basically viewed as a diploma from an inner city public school. nothing to brag about...

i would re-read that.. 2 were in Ca. and they are not considered sub-standard/ Also, University of Illinois in Champaign-Urbana is/was rated higher than most universities, at least when I went thru.

The point is that having people of questionable ehtics/morals AND limited IQ (below 130) is a recipe for what we have now, disaster..
I spent enough time in LE to absolutely DREAD when we had interaction with them. Besides the petty wannabe 'frat boy' attitudes, the pompousity, and the close mindedness.. no wonder they couldn't measure up to the Federal levels and standards.

I felt guilty for laughing at your post....but that is a very funny thought. DS people are so sweet and awesome....they would make the best cops ever. If you tried to argue with them....they would start to throw a fit though.
and they tend to be unusually strong....so that could come in handy.

What degree do people have, specifically, who are claiming *ANY* level of accredited degree is "easy" or basic stuff to look down on and insult?
