I had an acquaintance telling me about a brother or cousin {I forget which} who was denied entry into the police-force for being too intelligent; the reasoning being that “he wouldn’t have job satisfaction” despite ‘Policeman’ being the job he’d wanted from childhood.

Furthermore, I’ve had the police show up on my property for a multiple-step hearsay regarding a firearm “incident” [I was cleaning it].

As off-topic as it is, I will point out that cleaning a firearm where you can been seen by people outside your house is both an invitation for someone to steal it, and an invitation for unwanted police attention.

Just because it is legal, doesn't mean it is a good idea.
