How does anyone pass such stringent application, qualification and interview processes. here are two examples from todays news of the how high the bar has been set. Both are longtime veterans of the department:
Geez SDR, give it rest. Bad apples are bad apples. If you want to complain, complain about union rules that protect them, allow them to retire instead of be fired in these types of situations (like the Miramonte teacher), and the frequent, blind union defense of them.
My point exactly! I dont beleive for a second that they are any worse the any one else. The point is that they arent any better either. This hogwash of super stringent hiring and training that selects of the only the best, brighest and most ethical is the point fo contention. They are humans just like the rest of us.
Look, if you’ve got nothing to hide, I can’t see why you won’t put your penis in this device while we show you child porn to see if you get any reaction. What is the big deal? A few false positives is a small price to pay. Yes, we wipe down the device after every use. Come on, we don’t have all day…

You have a right to demand higher standards considering the level of responsibility and training that is given to them. I believe the public agencies go cheap on the psychologists and end up with low bid people. Low bid is not the way to go for cops. I am not sure what tests the firefighters use to screen their folks, but at one time they did not even screen them as stringently as law enforcement and that is a big mistake (IMHO).
