  1. I wonder how many must die before this type of idiocy stops to infest civilization? My thought is, it won’t. There is nothing less valuable to a Progressive/Leftist/democrat than human life….they prove it time & time again.
    Gotta hand it to them. We are regressing … just as the marxocrat party planned all along.

  2. The idea of lowering standards to meet a quota is one of the most offensive things in this “progressive” world.
    I certainly wouldn’t want to be her partner, let alone depend on her for saving my home or life.

  3. I got a serious injury just looking at her name.

    So, she’s a probie. So, even if she were OTJ for over a year they will put her ass on light duty – desk stuff. My Hubby, a FF of over 10 years injured his foot and knee stepping into a freaking deep pothole filled with water (late night call). He had to do light duty until given the green light to go back to regular service. And NYC is tougher than our area. Regardless of the break she got to be hired, the city’s lawyers won’t roll over. She had her chance.

    BTW, the potholes in our region will swallow a man whole.

  4. Seems to me most of these comments are directed at the wrong entities. The woman didn’t make up these asinine rules. The article says: “…watered-down requirements enacted by FDNY Commissioner Daniel Nigro.

    Federal Judge Nicholas Garaufis ordered they must get preference as victims of past discrimination against minorities.”

    And who ultimately oversees FDNY? Uh huh.

    Not saying the woman didn’t see through and play the system — that pension payout should be based on whether she is disabled from her broken foot.
