    Remember, cops in the US have a court-approved IQ cap, you will be washed out if you score too high.

    Explains a LOT.

        Not sarcasm, but a bit of hyperbole. There is no court mandated maximum IQ for cops. There was an incident where a candidate was rejected because he scored too high on an IQ test. The candidate sued for discrimination, but the courts said that it wasn’t illegal for them to reject him on that basis alone.
