I live in city with a pretty squeaky clean police department.
They are extremely paranoid when hiring - especially “experienced” officers who often turn out to be rejects.
Recently the BLM folks were able to get a big say in police hiring.
They’ve been demanding more Black officers.
It’s hard to get any officers at all, and the city doesn’t have many Black residents.
So they’ve been pushing to change the rules about hiring officers with “previous experience” - basically turning “previous experience” from a negative to a positive.

It's crazy. You can ignore reality, but you can't ignore the consequences of reality.
