It would be nice to periodically screen law enforcers (edit: and correctional officers) for psychopathy.
Maybe recrutement should actively try to reject those most likely to be authoritarian bullies with power complexes.

- Natfan 5y agoIf they can't staff an institution that apparently to require psychopaths to do the job, maybe they should undergo reform?
- pyuser583 5y agoNot law enforcement. Corrections. It attracts a different type of person, and a different type of psychopathy.
- bradknowles 5y agoCorrections, yes. But Law Enforcement too. Psychopathy and Sadism abound in both fields.
- nickcox 5y agoThat's basically all of them though? I think the single most important qualification for being a law enforcement or correctional officer should be not wanting to be a law enforcement or correctional officer.
