This is so funny because police overwhelmingly do not seek any form of higher education & are given guns to kill people in weeks-months of training they’re essentially babied & coddled through.
Not a singular new police officer on the force in my small Ohio hometown took a singular advanced class in high school, and most of them legitimately got D’s and shit in basic US history class. These were my peers, some my friends. I know the level of their education and intellectual pursuits fairly well.
