And she’s gonna carry you out of your burning house.
I never understood all this affirmative action and quota hiring and all that.
Agreed, let’s not discriminate. Agreed, let girls into the police academy and fire training. But, the girls have to meet the same standards. If they can’t cut it, that is not discriminatory. Based on the job requirements, such as being able to carry a 200 pound person, and carry heavy gear, being in good enough shape to run a mile, etc. some girls will be able to meet the standards. Those that meet the standards should be hired. If not, then they had their shot but couldn’t cut it. It’s not discrmination if they just can’t cut it.
Remember too, lots of men don’t make it through the basic training programs either. Are we going to say they were discrminated against due to being men???
