This. I’ve seen an article on the bbc demonising a woman who wanted to be seen by a white doctor and debating whether she should be denied nhs access… and then another article on the bbc supporting a black woman crying about not being able to see a black doctor and pitching it as institutionally racist
I don't care if you are gay, lesbian or trans gender. I don't care if you're white, black, brown, red, purple, or pink. As long you are competent to do your job well.
@@MarkChristofferson-h2d Racist! Purple is just skin deep. Purple people have been denigrated for centuries, so much so that you rarely ever see one, except at a LGBQXYZ+ rally.
You know what they say " whe it happens to you, that's when they will do something about it " ... the elites who lost everything, they're calling for newscum and bass to resign!! Maybe with their voice and the threats of not donating to the demonrats, they probably both put in their resignations. One can only hope!!
Diversity cost a good mate of mine his career, he was patrolling with a female constable. They had to detain a rather large islander, my mate had the offender in a headlock and told the constable to cuff him. She was unable to get the cuffs on him and my mate was back slammed on to a curb. This injury finished his career in the police force, this ended up costing the NSW government heaps and they lost a fair dinkum cop.
Women need to be kept out of police, army, fire etc and preferably out of politics and education. 99% either can't do the job or can't be trusted to do it
Let’s get things straight here: a DEI hire is almost always going to be unqualified or under qualified for the job that DEI had a role in the hiring. PERIOD. This LA female fire chief never carried a body up or down a ladder which is exactly what all men had to perform in order to pass training for qualification as the lowest caliber as firefighter.
There's no way that overweight slob could ever fight fires. Imagine it trying to run up a staircase to get to the "people that have gotten themselves in the wrong place"? You need to be fit and healthy to do that, she'd be out of breath just running around her desk.
They cut 17m from the overall budget but increased the dei budget. This woman earns 450k a year. ‘People want to be rescued by someone who looks like them’ and ‘looks like you got yourself in the wrong place’ is so unbelievable I’m still waiting for it to be revealed to be a hoax
Imagine if she had a health emergency like a heart attack, and the paramedics or doctors just told her, 'Well, you should have taken better care of yourself.'
I'm a firefighter and I can tell you that had routine land management been performed on a regular schedule, there would have been no fire. That is the case in every other state in the nation as well as the rest of the world.
I was wondering the same. I grew up in South Africa & Firebreaks are/were done routinely years back to prevent any large scale runaway fires. It's common sense. Tragic what has happened.
Californians voted for this mostly peaceful arson, and will keep voting blue no matter who. Let them enjoy this Maui 2.0 and get a check of $700 from the loving and caring DemocRats.
Firefighting is not an ordinary job. Firefighters should be always ready to perform difficult tasks that comes with their jobs and that includes carrying an injured or unconscious person. Dedicated and physically able are the boxes every firefighter should tick and not skin color, ethnicity or gender identity.
What I find astonishing is that she ACTUALLY said those words. So OUT-OF-TOUCH with reality that it didn’t occur to her that it MIGHT exact a vigorous response. I saw/heard it and still CANNOT believe it. And now politicians/leaders are still in the ring battling.
They’ve been trying to push this diversity across all levels of firefighting. Local, state, and federal. It’s a complete joke and it takes away from hiring the best people for the job
Sounds like jealousy practiced against whites....because whites are bad. Remember, your not supposed to question darker racial-groups. Don't wanna start "peaceful-protests" and shit....🤡
oh, but IF I WERE TO SAY, As a White, Straight Man, that i want someone to look like me in said emergency services to make ME feel comfortable, that's a problem
You are white and male therefore an oppressor. We MUST make everyone dark-skin, female and gay/trans. Hiring black/brown people ONLY BY THEIR RACE....is PROGRESSIVE. White bad! 🤡🤡🤡
What would you rather have: 1.) An emergency worker who looks different to you but is professional and competent. 2.) An emergency worker who looks the same as you but holds the opinion that your emergency is your own fault and won't lift a finger to help you.
As a Latino, it makes me wonder just how insecure members of my own race truly are, if they require special-treatment, less standards, and of course, blaming the white racial-group for everything. Why do white-people allow this madness to be practiced against them and shit? Why? 🤡
Get woke out of the governments, policeforces, education systems, social welfare, any official boards of all countries. And the rape gang scandal - given how massive it was/is and how longlasting it has been - should be classified as a crime against humanity.
The odds of 3 fire chiefs within the same fire department are all lesbian women is less than 1 out of 100,000. There are less than 100,000 fire departments in the US by a country mile, and yet LA somehow has still beat those odds...
@@BuffaloDreamer-f6p Yes. There are so many "lesbian women" fire chiefs in the world that the odds of having more than one in the same department is that low. Having a woman fire chief in a department is a heavily statistical outlier, even among the "equality focused" West. A lesbian woman fire chief? Even lower. This is counting the Chief of a Department AND the Deputy Chief. Somehow the LA Fire Department has 3 of them, and that is only possible due to LA breaking up their services into a bureaucratic mess. For the same reason that my city can have 1 sheriff department "precinct" to handle the entire city and LA has literally dozens alone, LA's fire department is broken up into a bunch of smaller departments.
Um, my brother is a firefighter and as far as I know aren’t they all still REQUIRED to be able to carry a dummy the size of an adult male down stairs in their training? Or is CA’s only training how to keep your makeup from running in the heat?!!!!

If you do not like it here please leave and do not spoil our reputation
Joy, we've got Rita back. We want Liz Storer back as well. If it's MONEY, BLOODY PAY. This is theatre but they are the BEST actors and actresses so give us our money's worth!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I hope there is an awakening of the value of meritocracy...somehow we have gone off the rails in our quest for inclusion and diversity...over merit. Strike a balance between them. We seem to go from one extreme to the other. Prejudices continue among us to our detriment..but qualifications must be given equal merit.
Re: the rape scandals, Rita, we don't accept it, in UK, we just do things by rule of law, unfortunately ..... but it's time for vigilantism, maybe. We welcome Elon and the other louder voices that have not allowed this to be buried any more.
When the state had not only failed but refused to uphold its duty to protect its citizens , what should citizens do , do they have a right to protect themselves and their children ?
Hallo Rita and Douglas, I just need to 'vent'. My background is in nursing (mainly Paediatrics) and primary school teaching. I'm now retired. When I did my PGCE (my degree is in Anthropology) we were taught that books read to, or provided for, classes, needed to be about characters that reflected the lives of the children. What a load of codswallop! As a child I spent many summer hours reading in the apple tree, going to places and meeting people I would never go to, or meet, in real life. I didn't want to read about 'people like me' - I KNEW what my life was like. And this idea is terribly patronising because it assumes that children aren't able to understand other people or places or cultures. The problem with 'diversity' is that in the end everything becomes a rather nasty grey-brown colour - just mix watercolours to prove this. It gives no-one the chance to shine, it celebrates the good, if there is any, in no culture. I worked in India for just over a year as a nurse/midwife helping to provide health care in a refugee camp, and while India does have places where it's full of colour, when it rained the muddy roads would become a horrible 'colour'. I don't have a word for it. I wish I was as intelligent and articulate as Douglas, but sadly I'm not! I'm clever enough to know the limits of my own insight and need other people to teach me. I appreciate both of you, how you're able to explain things so that people like me can understand them, and I'm appalled. And what's more empowering? Is it reducing the greater to the less (the hero/heroine to the level of the reader) or is it to take the reader to places they could never otherwise be?
The only criteria for a job should be the best qualified person for it, no matter what the person looks like. It’s apparent California didn’t use my criteria.
The Fire God that they worship practiced real DEI. It devoured the woke, the hypocrites and the ignorant equally, regardless of race, language or religion.
Imagine if I said I wanted my doctor/firefighter/nurse to look like me.
I’d be called racist.
You will be sick all the time.
Ahahahahahaha.
But seriously, you do not want a DEI hire doctor.
Depends... at the strip club it'd be a way different implication...

Only if you’re white. Otherwise bbc will write an article on how oppressed you are
That's the funny part. What about all of the white people? Do we not want people coming to help us to "look like us"? Oh wait, that's ultra racist...

Dunno about that, I'm sorry to say. I don't think California will change, even after this. I hope I'm wrong but l don't think so.
