Alan: There are many psychological profiling tools -- The Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory comes to mind -- which are so well devised that their administration to all police department applicants would provide reasonably accurate "psychological fingerprints" 

Such tests -- or perhaps newly developed "profiling systems" -- should be used to help avoid hiring "bad cops."


Too many "crazies" get hired by American police departments.


And too many police departments are themselves crazy.


Even more police departments that are not ostensibly crazy still train their cadets to be needlessly violent agents who provoke needless violence by deliberately inculcating the belief that officers must "take immediate control of a situation" no matter the violence or heavyhandedness entailed.

Unfortunately, American citizens have been taught by all our acculturative processes that "violence is the default solution" to all problems and so our "cop/criminal" outcomes are no happier than the outcome of The Iraq War.

"Is The United States Still A Nation Of Law? Bad Cops And Bad Politicians Walk"

Alan: Blacks are arrested - and prosecuted - at least twice as often as whites for the same "contraband" crimes white people at the same rate. 

If white people were incarcerated as often as blacks for the crimes both commit with the same regularity, and if blacks were incarcerated for the crimes they commit as often as whites are for those same crimes, the "black prison time" figure of 32% (above) would be cut in half and the "white prison time" figure of 6% would double.

The situation is further complicated because it is much harder for released blacks to find work than it is for released whites, making persistent black unemployment a source of recidivism.

Are there any circumstances under which you would hire Jamal ahead of James?
