the city's Melissa Boyle tells students she's not looking for strong swimmers

Why would you want lifeguards to be strong swimmers? That is so old school...

I guess a drowning Hispanic kid in a pool would rather have a poor-swimming Spanish speaker coming to rescue him than a strong-swimming Anglo.

Serious, you can't make this crap up.

The jackasses in this country just can’t get over their goofy obsession with skin color and sexual disorientation. Personally, I don’t care what color a lifeguard is. I prefer that they are capable and qualified. Their skin color isn’t much help when some one is drowning and I don’t think many people have a preference as to the lifeguard’s skin color when they are drowning. It’s time for the taxpayers to start kickin’ the asses of some of these goofy public servants. They’re all morons.

So now we can look at black *lifeguards* with the same “is he/she really qualified or is this an affirmative action hire?” thought that occurs when most of see a black doctor,lawyer,President,cop,etc,etc.

The white lifeguards should quit in mass, due to the overt racism.

Imagine noticing most of the lifeguards at a ‘white pool’ were black/latino, and then starting a program to correct that, even if it meant dangerously lowering the standards.

When the white lifeguards quit (before they are replaced), those minority pools will be forced to close.

This same logic would require handicapped lifeguards for handicapped swimmers....blind lifeguards for blind swimmers....and obese lifeguards for hefty XXL lifeguards for big-boy swimmers.

White kids take martial arts from non-whites all the time, even though the instructor does not speak good English. They watch the moves, learn the main words, and go for it.
Why can’t hispanic kids do that? They do it in baseball and elsewhere.

Does this city have a Risk Management Department to advise them on the possible financial consequences of having incompetent life guards on duty?

This will be coming to the military too.

“We don’t care if you can shoot and have any leadership ability or tactical sense or are able to carry large loads. We need our services to resemble the country they will fail to defend.”

San Francisco, a few years ago, celebrated the first “all female firehouse.” I asked my 6’5” 300 pound friend (no, he is not fat) how thrilled he’d be to see that engine comapny pull up in front of a burning building he was trapped in.

These folks are so nutso.

life guard certification requires both written and practical examination. If they no longer require certification then liability will become a major issue.

The first drowning at one of those pools ought to draw quite an interesting lawsuit in response.

In another article she said that the pool is filled with black and hispanic kids, but all the lifeguards were white, and WE DON’T LIKE THAT.

Imagine if it was the other way round, her racism would put her out of a job. Here her racism is regarded as liberal brilliance.

Racism is only bad if liberal enemies can be accused of it. When liberals actually are racist, it’s celebrated as brilliance.

I want to see how a lifeguard swims in a burqa.

Maybe they should take a page from former Dodger GM Campanis’s commentary about black atheletes and their inability to swim due to buoyency issues?

After noticing that most of the lifeguards at the public pools used by Latino and African-American kids were white,

And why were these racists noticing skin color?

At least the drowned child’s body can be removed from the pool by someone to whom they could have related.
