If you can't pass the test the rest of us have to take then you don't belong on the job.

The lefturds telling minorities that they are simply not smart enough to compete on an even playing field with caucasions is the ultimate in soft bigotry. The irony here is that 2 Hispanics passed the exam and were going to be jettisoned along with the white firefighters. Quotas and preferences are racist in and of themselves.
