I've been called an intellectual snob before, because I tended to look down on people unfairly. I've even been tested (with a real test, not some online crap) as having a fairly high IQ. So I find it interesting that I'm now being accused of thinking too highly of the ~50% of the population with IQ between 85 and 115.

In any case I stand by my assessment. Someone with a 100 IQ is perfectly capable of being a competent, well behaved police officer. And while your article suggests that lethality increases with lower IQs, I do think some of the biggest assholes I've ever had the displeasure of interacting with were legitimately brilliant otherwise. I wouldn't want them given power over others.
