The same thing is happening in Chicago. Standards are being lowered in order to get applicants, and now there are regularly awkward reports of rookie cops and academy enrollees (always minorities) committing crimes — off-duty road rage incidents or brandishing their service weapon during an argument, requesting sexual favors from women they encounter while on duty, etc.

Since rectifying the pathologies which have caused this shortage is out of the question, there are only two possible solutions:

1.) Increase pay
2.) Lower the standards.

One of the most telling bits of information about the George Floyd incident was that one of the cops involved was a 36 year-old ROOKIE.

He wasn’t a female or minority “diversity hire,” either … just a plain white guy.

You know an urban sh!t-hole police department is desperate for bodies when they are hiring someone like that.
