I hope the Police officers are smarter than the posters in this thread. You guys suck at reading comprehension.




what am I missing? It says "House Bill 277 would require all peace officers to annually complete a minimum of 400 hours of basic core curriculum training and a minimum of 20 hours of in-service training to remain accredited"

400 hours is roughly 10 weeks which would be roughly 20% of the year. What am i missing?

The text of the actual Bill.

The news article quoted is incorrect.

eta: I also know as fact that the Louisiana Sheriff's Association is the most politically powerful organization in the state yielding more influence than the the Waterboy Governor himself. They would have opposed a 400 hour annual training requirement and the bill would have never made it out of committee.
