was the test not given in English? how is the test suspect if the black candidates all failed, sounds like it's the qualifications of the particular black candidates that are suspect, perhaps they expected affirmative action to "give them a little help" and failed to study...maybe they need to give/take the test in Ebonics?(loved the Clinton years and the whacko ideas) ....CONTEXT? a bunch of firefighters took a test, some did well and some failed, their race/color should have no bearing...libs take the opportunity to fan the flames of racism real or invented, what's new?
the newest lib supreme-to-be and the existing libs on the SC all saw it the same way.....pathetic
