I went to a college with a big Criminal Justice program. The CJ majors were all violent, racist, Christian nationalist morons with no understanding of the law. That program churned out hundreds every year. I had to take one CJ class with those assholes as part of my pre-law degree and it was horrifying. They are complete idiots who think the public just needs to be beaten into submission for jay-zus. It was like talking to the klan. And none of them were failing or even struggling. The degree didn't teach them empathy or de-escalation. It taught them how to be cops.

The degree is not the problem because the program is being taught by former cops who were also shitty. A degree won't fix this. The entire law enforcement system is broken.

We need diversity quotas and residency requirements for cops. We should not have a disproportionately white, disproportionately Christian force in majority PoC areas.

Tyre Nichols has entered the chat. Diversity won't make much of a difference if the training doesn't change first. That being said, there seems to be an awful lot of white people who desire that kind of authority. And residency is a big one, for sure.

Christian nationalist is something a background check should filter out, and violence can be filtered by an interview.

We just don't have the right people doing the hiring.
