brilliant liberalism, lower physical standards for female firefighters

How many innocent people need to be sacrificed on the altar of bullsh*t woke nonsense, anyway? Is there a limit?

Well, they’ve been doing it in the military, so it was bound to hit the civilian world.

for 50 plus years .. and for the same reasons you all complain about transgender in women's sports ... their not built the same

the Military also doesn't expect a 35 year old to run as fast as an 18 year old but they expect they a 35 year old to do more push ups than the 18 year old. it's based on science not fairness

More Conservative faux outrage last week it was gas stoves''


"God. Guns. Gas Stoves," wrote U.S. Rep. Jim Jordan, (R-Ohio) on Twitter.
Florida Gov. Ron Desantis' political organization quickly came out with aprons for sale in the style of a yellow Gadsden flag, once an icon of the Tea Party, but with a gas stove where the rattlesnake usually sits.

Not only is Biden coming for your paycheck, he is coming for your stove. You heard me right. The White House is now attempting to ban all gas ovens and burners," said Fox News host Sean Hannity.


funny jim you guys don't want transgender men in women's sports because of physical strengths differences .

Now your upset Firefighters physical tests are reflecting that reality men and women have different abilities

“It’s a huge safety liability, the whole point of having the national standard is having a bar that everyone has to reach,” Kelly said.

total BS right there because once your on the Job unlike the Military
your not required to pass a fitness test ever again .... I know my Brother in Law been a firefighter for 30 years

It has been reported that more than 70 percent of U.S. firefighters are overweight or obese, exceeding the national average for adults and presenting a major threat to their health, wellness, and ultimately survival. Obesity was associated with increased risk of high blood pressure, cardiovascular disease, job-related disability, and death in the line of duty
