HenryKawa:- Very intelligent with a high IQ of 94
Here is a true story, that happened a few years back in Connecticut, U.S.A. About a man applying, to become a policeman.
This story has been toned down quite a bit since the actual incident. The man denied the job, by the Association, initially was not told why he was denied.
He ultimately hired an attorney, then the answer came forth, as he was, TO SMART!
When this hit the news, the message sent out to all, with the cranial capacity to think things through, found out that the police, wanted borderline moronic automatons, as police officers.
In other words, they did NOT want men & women that would think for themselves, about a conflict, to a better resolution, than the club, and jail, technique.
The head of the Association, immediately had to start back peddling, from his original reasoning, to a quote of, "We think Mr. Jordan will become very bored, with the day to day MUNDANE tasks of an officer, with his elevated IQ, and then leave the department".
NOTHING was said, at the time, about the cost of training & such, as he was already a prison guard, & passed 3/4 of the required training necessary for the police job.
Summary; Here in America, the powers that be, want near morons, WITH GUNS, to police our nations citizens.
Now you all needn't wonder anymore, as to why there are so many law abiding civilians shot to death, every year, in the U.S..
Apparently, when brought to trial over such a situation, they can all claim the are not competent enough, in making such duress filled situational calls, on their own. Back to the beat, they go.
Below is the sanitized version of the incident. So Henry's admitted IQ is justified, as far as I am concerned. Mine being 55 points above Henry, (when in high school) find truth in his predilection, of being a police officer.
Could be a crock of crap as well. Only Henry knows

Edit: Sorry about the last IQ list folks. I had not read any of the other threads before this one. At least the info is equivalent, albeit skewed. Much disagreement as to how real IQ, is measured, professionally.
