“multi-generational family of cops” should be illegal because it breeds arrogance, contempt, and aloofness from other types of works in life.:
viz.
I, Perchance, being of the ignorant peon class,
would proffer the following proposition:
A. for a legislature bill that in each state for local, state and federal agencies that all law enforcement personnel be restricted by LAW to a maximum of 5 years on a public police/peace officer/state trooper etc., taxpayer funded institution employed position. Said law would allow only a one-time 5-year hire for the entire life of the officer/LEO. Said law would not allow said ex-officer to be hired again by ANY LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENCY or private security company ANYWHERE IN THE USA for employment in the USA. This would allow new citizens to be hired FROM THE PEOPLE who are uncontaminated by the “master-race syndrome” of present day LEO`s. This would prevent abuses by former bad cops going into private industry employment marketplace.
This would include ALL FEDERAL AGENCIES including EPA, DHS, BORDER PATROL, IRS Etc. [US MILITARY EXCLUDED]
B. No more than one member from each three generation family [grandfather-father-grandson/daughter etc.] would be allowed to be hired as a police office each 20 years.
This would obfuscate the hand-me-down illegal “me-master-family-you -peon attitude of present day police families.
C. Every year each police office would be required to take a required course on the U.S. Constitution and their respective state constitutions addressing the Second Amendment historical bases, precedents, principles and practices up to the year 1914.
No gun control classes would be allowed by any police officer as it would result in his/her/it immediate dismissal.
After said 5 years, no more duty would be available unless it is a national emergency call-up terrorist attack from a foreign-based country.
This would offset the arrogant -cop-for-life milieu that illicitly pervades America`s armed police.
Seriously, was wondering.
And another question; experience. How would we handle experience when those that get good at investigations and other such things, but move on. . how would that be handled.
And last question, where are all the police going to come from? Serious question—we have so many people that don't want the job and see no value in doing the job. We also have many people that would simply not be good at it in any form.
Banning multi-generational families? You mean banning a son from becoming a cop because his father was one? What did the son ever do? If we ban family members from being cops then aren't we unfair to the son if the father is a cop? I mean, you are now placing the government in a position to dictate what you can and can not do for a living. . .merely based on family/blood-line. That would violate the 14th Amendment would it not? How would you handle the freedom issue? We as conservatives believe all men should be free to choose their own life path and by having the government dictate your career is taking away that freedom, individual freedom that we cherish deeply.
So, we are faced with a conundrum, force a high turnover and lack qualified applicants or we do the opposite and violate our rights and freedoms and conscript.
If someone wants to be an EMT and after a few years becomes hardened and aloof, what then?. . .as most become emotionless and hardened and don't really care about the suffering. . .would we require the same employment limitations? Doctors, too. Nurses? Heck, even tax authorities.
And what about ALL government employment positions? As you and I know, some of the most arrogant and aloof and abusive are public employees in any bureaucratic job (DMV, for example, Social Security, Post Office, Public Works Dept, etc. . .).
Perhaps we should adopt your policy for all public policy or public employment positions.
Serious questions not trying to start an argument, just curious as your suggestions brings up many questions.
