    I wonder what it would be like if passing the Bar was required to be a police officer. There would be way less police officers, that’s for sure.

      There would be almost none. If you are capable of being a lawyer and have the education to be one, you wouldn’t choose to be a cop.

        Unless it pays well and you recognize the need for law enforcement on some level, and don’t have to worry about the corrupt system because it’s already been gutted by this change.

    Law Enforcement should be a profession, just like doctors and nurses.

    Formal education. Licensing with a college whose role is to protect the public. Malpractice insurance. Requirements to remain current, and eligible to practice.
