Dumber Recruits Forced on Police Department

(Dayton, Ohio) The Obama administration, through the Department of Justice (DOJ), is forcing the Dayton Police Department to lower its testing requirements for new recruits.

The DOJ asserts that insufficient numbers of African-Americans are passing the current exam.

The hiring process was postponed for months because the D.O.J. rejected the original scores provided by the Dayton Civil Service Board, which administers the test.

Under the previous requirements, candidates had to get a 66% on part one of the exam and a 72% on part two.

The D.O.J. approved new scoring policy only requires potential police officers to get a 58% and a 63%. That's the equivalent of an ‘F’ and a ‘D’.

Note that the Dayton Police Department is not the first law enforcement organization the DOJ has forced to dumb down.
