Ten seconds after their initial report to dispatch, one of the officers called in “shot have been fired.”
FBI to Investigate Shooting of Calif. 13-Year-Old – ABC News
Two days ago they were claiming that the kid ignored repeated requests by the police.
There was a report about 5 years ago that a NYPD candidate was dropped because he had too high an IQ. They really prefer to have thugs that can be controlled rather then thinking people.
The idea is not to have more thugs but to hire police that do not quit prior to retirement age. — Jordan, a 49-year-old college graduate(aside from the fact that 49 is kinda old to begin a career as a beat cop), took the exam in 1996 and scored 33 points, the equivalent of an IQ of 125. But New London police interviewed only candidates who scored 20 to 27, on the theory that those who scored too high could get bored with police work and leave soon after undergoing costly training. The average score nationally for police officers is 21 to 22, the equivalent of an IQ of 104, or just a little above average.
Jordan alleged his rejection from the police force was discrimination. He sued the city, saying his civil rights were violated because he was denied equal protection under the law. But the U.S. District Court found that New London had “shown a rational basis for the policy.” In a ruling dated Aug. 23, the 2nd Circuit agreed. The court said the policy might be unwise but was a rational way to reduce job turnover.

Should I be the only one concerned that the current justice department is investigating our current uber-militarized police force? This would be akin to the mob investigating the Obama administration.
“Drop it drop it drop it {BANG!}“
Just imagine Hitler controlling america in 1938.
That’s exactly like Odumbo controlling American in 2008.
“Two days ago they were claiming that the kid ignored repeated requests by the police.”
Possibly they left out the part where he ignored the repeated requests after being shot.
Only a Criminal cop would not be defending a citizen’s right to own and bear arms. A police state terrorist kills a citizen for bearing arms, even fake arms. The murdering terrorists in blue shirts should be hanged on the public square along with their Fascist bosses
