    FBI Says That 80% Of Police Officers Are Overweight

    According to new statistics released by the U.S. Federal Bureau of Investigation, 8 out of every 10 police officers in America are overweight. The new study highlights a widespread problem in police departments across the country. According to some researchers, law enforcement officers are actually 25 times more likely to die from weight related cardiovascular disease than on duty injuries.

    However, some police departments are denying that this is as much of an epidemic as the FBI report suggests, although they still admit that there is a serious problem.
    “Do we have some that are overweight? Sure we do. But, not to that percentage. Somebody that did a full career in law enforcement? Average age was 60 — that’s when they died, at 60 years old. So what we found out is if we’re going to improve and overcome that stress, we’ve got to stay in shape, we’ve got to control our weight if we want to live longer,” Joe Harn, of the Garland Police Department in Texas told CBS News.
    This is not just a problem in America either, it was also reported this week that a large number of police in the UK are having trouble passing their fitness exams.
    Not only are a vast number of police officers in the US overweight, but they are also significantly less intelligent than the average person as well. It was reported by ABC News many years ago, that police departments actually reject applicants when they score too high on IQ tests.

    These cases have been challenged and taken to court, but the courts actually ruled that police departments do in fact have the right to reject applicants who were too intelligent for the job.
    It would seem that according to the government’s own statistics, the vast majority of law enforcement officers are unintelligent and out of shape.

    Well, 74% of American men are overweight. 80% for cops statistically significant, but without knowing other statistics for the cop sample, might not mean anything. For instance, 80% overweight might be consistent with national averages for the age demographic of cop sample (older than national average of 74% demographic).

    In other words, of course American cops are fat. Americans are fat.

    That's from 2014.

    I'm sure its gotten a lot better since then.
    It's all about taking action and not being lazy. So you do the work, whether it's fitness or whatever. It's about getting up, motivating yourself and just doing it.

    I've noticed there are two kinds of cops. You have your doughnut cops (fat ones) and your steroid cops (overly muscular ones) and they're both dumb. They're also usually $#@!s.

    Ton of variables involved such as white cops vs. black cops. Even if white cops have low I.Q.'s, they are still more intelligent than their counterparts. Unless their counterpart is an Asian. But even then an Asian cop wouldn't be as good a driver in a high speed chase as a black cop. There really are to many variables to consider. So I think we should just cover with a blanket statement expressing solidarity with all cops. Because all cops matter.

    80% overweight from the govt isn't saying much. These are the same people who according to the use of the BMI to calculate who is overweight also think this man below is overweight.



    Also the fact that they rejected people with very high IQ doesn't mean the squads are filled with below average IQ people. Maybe the high IQ people couldn't pass the physical test? who knows the real reason why they were rejected. Btw, having average IQ is not bad, it just means you are average and last time I checked, average ain't bad.

    One thing we know for sure is that the FBI is a crooked organization.

    It's because AG Eric Holder forced police departments to lower their hiring standards regarding both intelligence and physical fitness. Now cops can be shorter, fatter, slower, weaker and dumber - because Obama and Holder believe that this is the way to create a more diverse police force.

    If you don't think the intelligence of a cop matters, consider finding yourself in that positon where a cop with a gun in his hand unexpectedly happens upon you and is deciding whether you are a danger or not.

    The low intelligence cop reacts with less sophisticated thoughts: "I'm scared he'll kill me. I'll kill him first" or "He's breaking a law and deserves punishment, anyway. I will be a hero and kill him, like I see on TV".

    A smarter cop will consider a thousand thoughts in that 1/2 second: "Is this the victim? a bystander? a criminal? What does his body language say? How does this scenario jibe with the initial report?" and much more.

    Do you really trust the cop with average intelligence (who, remember, is stupider than about half of the population) to make a better decision than the cop with a high IQ? Or if your life is hanging by a thread (say, you need to be rescued) will the dumb cop be more, or less, likely to successfully save your life?

    How would you like to dial 911 in an emergency and have these two show up?

    Here comes the federalization of the police force.....







    If we have to have cops, I'd prefer them fat and stupid.
