>>When city officials settled a reverse discrimination lawsuit last year, they said they’d been talking with Justice Department officials about rewording the 1980 decree to ensure that black firefighters filled fill a higher proportion of supervisory positions.<<

Yes — EEO hires with bricks on the scales. What could go wrong?

Soon, anyone with any sense will recoil in terror when they see a Black firefighter, KNOWING said firefighter doesn’t know what the hell he is doing.

And I flat-out won’t accept a Black lawyer or Doctor. Not from racism but b/c I know they got in without being able to qualify.

having lower intelligence and lower education has consequences. we already have enough thugs with badges - of all colors. if they can’t pass tests it’s because of themselves, not anyone else. we’ve already dumbed down physical requirements for cops and firemen so women could start passing tests.

They want to spot minorities points based on how dark their skin is.

Found it!

” It’s called the soft bigotry of low expectations.”

Low expectations are “soft racism”, but they have brought this on themselves and they don’t even realize it!!

“Smile for my cell-cam.”

Followed by “see you in court.”

In between a WHOLE LOT OF “yes, sir” “no sir” and “whatever you say sir.”

Some situations you choose. Some choose you.

That is why I said people will and should feel fear about a Black EEO firefighter. But he is sent there to save you and you have to pray you get lucky.

“The soft bigotry of low expectations.”
I believe that’s the phrase Rush used.

These tests aren’t fair: They require ‘reedin’, ritin’, and ‘rythmetic.

No. The test asks, “Where do you find the fire hose?

Holder’s people thought they were asking where do you find the five ho’s. They answered MLK Blvd....wrong answer.

"So what makes the test too hard for ‘minorities’?"

Maybe the tests are written in cursive.
