NEW YORK CITY FIRE DEPARTMENT DROPS PHYSICAL TEST TO BOOST FEMALE HIRING

[Antares]

"The New York City Fire Department has stopped requiring firefighters to pass a physical-skills test before prior to being hired – Fire Commissioner Daniel Nigro revealed the move this week as City council members pressured the FDNY to hire more women as firefighters. The person you’re pulling out of a building doesn’t care how many people of your particular sex were hired on the force, but they DO care if you have the physical ability to save their lives."

This is the bullshit that comes from Affirmative Action/PC wing of the Left.

IF YOU'RE SO WEAK, THAT YOU CAN'T PASS THE FUCKING STANDARDS. DON"T ATTEMPT IT. Seems like common sense, but not to the filthy left or its losers.

Fire fighters need to be strong enough to carry people
Fire fighters need to be strong enough to hold the hose with a jet of water coming out of it.
Firefighters need to be strong enough to carry heavy equipment.

People will die because of this bull shit.

Some guy will die because someone couldn't do their job.

 

[Book of Jeremiah]

Very foolish decision.

 

[Katzndogz]

To liberals it doesn't matter how many people die. It's the principle.

 

[Mustng]

Lets hope City council members need a firefighter someday and SHE cannot handle the rescue....OOPS
