Nothing is more enraging than affirmative action.
(CNSNews.com) – A federal judge is ordering the New York City Fire Department to implement racial quotas to address grievances from minorities who failed entrance exams.
On July 5 in Brooklyn, Nicholas G. Garaufis, a Clinton-appointed judge for the Eastern District of New York, issued a ruling that requires two of every five newly hired fireman to be black and one of every five, Hispanic — until the department has fulfilled the court-ordered quota of 186 black and 107 Hispanic hires.
The ruling allows back pay — totaling an estimated $128.7 million — for minorities who failed written tests.

I'd hire the first "qualified" (ie:proper shade of brown) people to walk in the door.

When the public starts DYING, maybe they'll decide to jam said "ruling" back into the orifice from whence it came - hizzonner's @$$!
Un-f***ing REAL.
Now...
*IF* someone can demonstrate that there is REAL bias in hiring PUBLIc-sector jobs, I'm all for doing something about it.
However, if the test is relevant but they're basically saying "most blacks are too stupid to pass this test, hire them anyway" then that's *JUST* the sort of tyranny that needs to be stamped out!
STOMPED out.
With a nice, heavy pair of Doc Martins.
Maybe they should study harder.
Maybe even We The People should spend a few bucks to teach them to read!
Lowering standards however should *NOT* be an option!!
