How about we hold an individual to the same standards as everyone else? If this guy were white he would have lost his job long ago because Dallas has a very high and climbing
crime and murder rate.
If his 1st public comments after his firing were about it being about race, perhaps that is the attitude he is allowing to permiate his former dept.
Sort of like Ms. Oliphant in Fort Lauderdale, the elections commish. She is utterly incompetant. Has overspent by more then double her annual budget and needed help from the feds to just get an election accomplished. Yet she won't get fired because she is black.
Lower the standards and look the other way so as to appear
multicultural? I don't think so, I think it is simply quotas.

If black ministers spent as much time preaching Law and Gospel as they do with politics, all our inner cities would have a lower crime rate. That these incompetents should be asked for their opinion in a situation like this tells you plenty. Does the press seek out white pastors when a white police chief is fired?
Dallas is so screwed up that people will soon be moving out of that area as they are L.A. Yesterday was another deadly pollution day and the crime rate is soaring. Houston is actually better than Dallas now, though its economy is in the toilet. Texas is getting too crowded with misfits from everywhere.
