Some
member of the legislature or of the formerly great state of California,
from the San Francisco area, is proposing that the MQs be raised in Ca
for becomming a cop. The idea is cops should be at least 25 or have a
4-year degree. The reasoning that was given was because such
individuals have lower numbers of use of force incidents.
Opposition
piped up based on the assertion that "people of color" do not
necessarily have access to 4 year degree programs. One commented on the
noon news, I wish I had caught his name, a Black fellow, said
(paraphrased0 'Then maybe they should get off their butts and get the
degree.'
They want less
cops, they want them to do less with less resources and raise the
minimum qualifications for the job. Somehow that does not all line up
for me.

Why even talk about police officers with degrees if you want to de-fund the police?
