Police May Scrap Entrance Exam: Report

Discussion in 'Politics' started by jficquette, Jan 6, 2010.

  1. The Chicago Police Department is seriously considering scrapping the police entrance exam, sources tell Fran Spielman.

    Dropping the exam would bolster minority hiring and avert legal battles, according to one source, while others confirm that the exam could be scrapped to open the process to as many people as possible.

    However, the lack of an exam would make Chicago the lone major city without one, and experts contend that the exam is integral to eliminating unqualified applicants.

  2. Is this another one of Obama's stunts?

    Nothing like a gangsta rapper police force to serve and protect, keep the peace and assist in looting during riots.
     
  4. Nothing makes me feel safer than an asshole who was to stupid to to pass a basic exam, with a chip on his shoulder from getting beat up in highschool walking around in public with a gun and a taser.:D

    It appears they are also trying to ban science labs in schools, which was mentioned in another thread, next thing liberals will tell us is that med school was to hard and we should also hand out a doctor's license to every person who was to stupid an unqualified to get in, just so everyone has a fair shot.

    Does anyone even question the fact that we are doomed?
     
  5. Pretty much anybody can do a better job than Chicago PD officer Anthony Abate and his conspirators.

  6. This kind of stuff is pretty typical, id say it is probably atleast 25% of police officers do the job because they want to be in a position of power over someone, its too bad these guys tarnish the good cops repuation. (there is lots of them out there) Can you imagine how much worse it is going to get when they dont even have to pass a simple exam to get in? Its cop school not rocket science, if you can not pass simple exams then you do not belong in public with a badge and a bunch of weapons.

    Plus look at the criminals that already get into the country. Libtards tell us we should just open the borders and let everybody in since we can't keep 100% of the bad guys out.
     
  8. I would be shocked, given the governments ineptitude in the christmas attack, If there was not already hoards of terrorists the government doesnt even know about, living in the States, who got in through Mexico.

    Actually here is an extremely interesting debate i listened to over the holidays on that very subject.

    This reverse discrimination junk is ridiculous. It is slowing everything down and making life harder for everyone. If someone is too stupid for a police exam, turn them down, do not give them a weapon. This is why the TSA is a bunch of retards, they take anyone.
