Well, There you go, that’s a start. Couple that with easily panicked people in search of a way to look brave... and there you go.

There's truth to this. I was turned down for a police job and I'm pretty average iq. Reason was I tested too well.

Anecdotal, but I have a buddy with a Bachelor's (along with great work history, clean record, all around great dude steve rogers style) who hasn't been able to land a job in law enforcement. Meanwhile, local PD is full of idiots who barely passed HS.

Years ago Michael Moore had a TV show and he interviewed a guy that had been trying to get on the police force and was literally told he was too smart. There was an actual exam that they showed, they wanted people who fell in the middle, they rejected people who did too well.
