Why don't you read the article? Apparently the test weeded out the book smart from the street smart. There's no guarantee those that passed the test would be better firefighters.It's really a complicated case. If anyone is interested here's a good run down...I don't know what the proper ruling should be...but I'm not sure why a city should be forced to hire a dyslexic?
Supreme Court Hears Firefighter Promotion Case : NPR
and one could say why hire a black man who cannot pass a test that a dyslexic white man could pass?? agree??
Or you can join William Joyce and try to convince the world that black people are genetically stupid.
tell mle what was in the test that could not be answered by a firefighter??? with preperation and study,, which questions could not be answered by a black man.. other minorities passed did they not??? could the answer just posssbily be that they did not prepare,, did not put forth the effort,, and the easy was to punish the white men who did is to file a civil rights lawsuit?? you think that's a possibility????
