> If you spend any time talking to law enforcement, the conversation inevitably goes to how dumb most criminals are.
This is because most criminals are actually incredibly dumb. Deal with them and you'll see it, too.
That said, some of them are pretty bright. Just like all of humanity, there are a spectrum of abilities found in the carceral population. However, they trend towards the lower end of the range of possibilities when it comes to innate intelligence.
> It is the position of law enforcement of course that criminals are only those who they apprehend. It is completely beyond the ability of them to understand that their could exist an entire sphere which they have no insight into at all.
I spend a lot of time talking to law enforcement as part of my day job, and my experience is nothing like yours. I would encourage you to expand your horizons (or not, whatever).
