The quality of police and firefighters went down when they reduced the
physical requirements and dumbed down the exam so people who would not
normally qualify could get the jobs. The liberals who wanted this are
now the first to cry when one of the affirmative action hires screws
up and gets into a jam. The lowering of standards brings down the
whole organization. You didn't see these problems 30 or 40 years ago
when only the very best and brightest got the jobs..
==================
lets see what was happening 30 and 40 years ago
violent crime peaked in 1991 per

- 1991 was 30 years ago approx
7700 died in fires in 1978 - 3300 died in 2016 - per

1978 was 40 years ago approx
seems that getting rid of the "best and brightest" was a brilliant choice
