If you wrote anything except false, you don’t know anything about law enforcement.
Great self-test, Jack & Tina! Gonna be interesting to read the comments on this one!
I was hoping that uh, er, aka Georgia, et al, would comments.
I guess this makes me a law enforcement expert, at least on issues related to this test.
The garbage being taught regarding race relations and race in general is shameful. The left should be embarrassed.
Hey gang i am a law enforcement expert too.
“4. Blacks receive harsher sentencing than other races.”

I’d do the whole thing, but I’d be wasting my time, wouldn’t I? Because we all know that the Rupert-owned WSJ is an organ of liberal propaganda … and I have a life to live.
Toodles.
Libby, it’s better that you not seek out the DOJ statistics on this because you are not prepared to handle the truth. Just stay calm, and above all don’t expose yourself to facts, they would mess up your world.
Chris, it’s funny that you are once again the only guy that doesn’t get it, you get so literal or so into minutia that its your undoing. Take a look at the entire line of questions. They are stereotype questions held by cop haters and misinformed people. These are questions taken from the news, current events, and statistical data from the FBI.

And might I draw your attention in particular to Table 6?
I understand Libby, blacks do have a higher rate of incarceration, but it is consistent with a higher propensity to commit crime and be arrested for said crimes, which makes it a society problem, not a police bias problem. We shouldn’t blame the police because blacks commit more crime than other races. This is just reality, not bias, but its states at the risk of being accused as being biased.
“… but it is consistent with a higher propensity to commit crime and be arrested for said crimes, ….”
Don’t make me haul out the “B” word … yet again.
