    Former recruits who spoke to AP say racism permeated their time at the DEA academy, alleging exceptions were routinely made for underperforming white trainees while Blacks were held to a higher standard.http://apne.ws/aML2PLw

        I believe it, the good old boys club is real. They have been doing it for decades. Every major law enforcement dept has been sued for discrimination on promotion & test at one point or another, even the fire depts.

        So not only are they wholly incompetent, as evidenced by rates of street availability over the decades of their pointless existence, they’re fighting the racist drug “war” in an explicitly racist manner. We should stop wasting money on this and send them to go get real jobs.

        Absolutely appalling. And we wonder why law enforcement is not “representative” of our demographics! Here’s your answer. These trainers don’t need sensitivity training, they need to be fired!
