Before I even opened that article, I said to myself "I bet this has something to do with hiring more 'minorities'..." because for some reason, on a macro level, they just seem to suck something awful whenever held to intelligence thresholds that are determined in a standardized format (yeah, yeah... Guns, germs and steel... Forced over-emphasis on water-gathering during the bronze age is obviously the excuse for that )

The first sentence in the article...

Quote:
The Chicago Police Department is seriously considering scrapping the police entrance exam to bolster minority hiring, save millions on test preparation and avert costly legal battles that have dogged the exam process for decades, City Hall sources said Tuesday.
So, basically, what they're about to do is crap all over every officer of any race who met the earlier, more stringent hiring criteria by bringing in a bunch of retards, just to fill demographic quotas.... because, yeah. What the Chicago PD needs right now is lower hiring standards.

Jesus ****ing christ, this city is like Alice in Wonderland at times...
