Aside from the kiddie porn, a 19 year old deputy? WTF America, this kids barely out of kindergarten, why the fuck is he getting such a position of power?
Are you under the impression that deputy is a high rank in the sheriffs department? (It’s an entry level position) Or are you saying that someone should only become a cop after they have failed at other professions and are looking to start a new career?
Would you like to be operated on by a 19-year old doctor?
No?
Why not?
Because it takes years to learn the relevant skills and responsibilities?
Yeah. In my country even thr the lowest level police officer goes through what is equivalent to a university degree. (Third level education.)
And despite that, there’s still problems. Not the same problems, but still.
In America the “training” to become a police officer is often less than the basic training that we give for conscripts in the army on the use of force and responsibilities of wielding authority.
Should entry level police positions require a minimum age of 35 or something? I’m pretty sure whatever country you are from the minimum age for a police officer are similar.

It should require at least a 4-year legal degree, but instead they’ve got an IQ cap

Boom shakalaka! That would solve so much.
Kind of seems like a natural candidate for an associate’s degree tbh.
To me, as a non-US person, it sounds like second in command to the sheriff. That said, 18 is still very young for a police officer, in my opinion.
I’m under the impression that I wouldn’t want a 19 year old to be responsible for upholding the law without knowing the law, especially while armed.
Dude.

What kind of idiotic choices are those?
Feels like you intentionally made yourself look like an idiot here to prove a point.
Good job.

Normally one has to be 21 since that is the legal age to own a handgun, and have 30-60 credit hours at an accredited college/university to even apply.
How a 19 year old was accepted is beyond me.
