An Oakland City Councilwoman, Desley Clarke, is trying to put forth new regulations to lower the passing scores on the police exams, in the name of diversity. Most standard police exams are high school level, with emphasis on writing and grammar skills. Police officers must be capable of writing reports, that will be seen in courts, if the report reflects a conviction.
Lowering the exam passing score of 45, to 42 seems to be not in the best interest of anyone, even the applicant. What would work would be seminars, teaching exactly the type of writing skills and rudimentary skills one needs to pass the test. The only thing gained by lowering the exam score will be having senior officers have to teach the recruits later, or having them fail their probation. This is not a question of diversity, its a question of educating people in the basics.

No way even in the military standards are the same for men and women and for all ethnic groups….
No no let’s not have smart cops cuz i be racist to be inclusive let anybody do the job
The opposite should happen…raise the standards and raise the pay. We have even had courts rule that police depts can reject applicants if their IQ is too high. All part of the Marxist takeover agenda to lower standards and insert criminals within the police force to get problems started with minorities so they can federalize the police force, currently underway.
wake up people
I don’t want a lower standard officer protecting my town or working along side me if you can’t pass the test t you don’t get the job
I’m surprised they haven’t privatized criminals yet
When tyranny came to Dustin Heathman’s door, he stood up for what’s right and didn’t put a scratch on anyone. Now he’s facing 10 life sentences, and has been lied about in the media. Please sign and share this petition. Dustin never tried to kill anyone.
