Same issue exist up north. I think It's not like you can blame eeo recruitment efforts though. Major cities up north are reassessing how to attract more women and minorities.
In Columbus: Amy Delong, head of the city’s Civil Service Commission, said the group has discussed with (Mayor) Coleman three changes in the background standards:
• Candidates would not be removed if they took a drug not prescribed to them such as a Percocet or Ambien no more than once.
• The city would not disqualify applicants if their drivers license was suspended for financial reasons, such as nonpayment of car insurance.
• Applicants would not be removed if they admit to minor physical or emotional domestic violence in the past 10 years, such as a fight with a sibling as minors that didn’t result in criminal charges.
Police- and fire-union officials have said the standards should not be changed (LOWERED), because of the sensitive nature of public-safety jobs.
The U.S. Department of justice has filed suits against cities, everywhere, for not having better diversity of women and minorities.
Prior to gore's global climate warming nonsense, founded on voodoo science, he did initiate orders to make ambient air quality data more valuable than just for enforcement cases against industry.
He pushed for initiatives to develop a better substitute for the 'pollutant standard index" named air quality index. This is now published daily in numerous and various media as part of a EMPACT outreach system... environmental monitoring for public access.
Otherwise, EPA and the states and locals just have a huge air quality monitoring network that generates huge amounts of hourly averaged data kept in a big white elephant in Research Triangle Park.
The only thing that might raise the ambient temperatures on planet earth by one-tenth of 1/2 of a degree F is all the CO2 emissions from alcohol distilleries.
Do they not receive free schooling, medical care and welfare as well as assistance with food and housing? Are our water and sewage systems built to take unlimited demand? Can they drain the economy in other ways too where the U.S. Taxpayers money could be be spent better elsewhere, like the cost for border patrols, fences etc. Ever wonder why we see banks requiring you to press 1 English, 2 for Spanish, but no other language options?
Yes, President Reagan's "employer Sanction Program" didn't do anything because it wasn't enforced. Today, illegal aliens take the dirt cheap jobs and better ones, hurting students and college graduates and etc.
Yes, it is true, Reagan granted amnesty to around 3 million illegal aliens. As this great president said, "The employer sanctions program is the keystone and major element. It will remove the incentive for illegal immigration by eliminating the job opportunities which draw illegal aliens here."
The employer sanctions program, never worked because these laws were never enforced. As a result of no enforcement, we saw continued and great numbers of illegal aliens silently invading our country and destroying our infrastructure.
The only way to solve illegal aliens from Mexico, would be to help their government improve their economy.
Cinema Paradiso .... Actually, one of my favorite movies. It sucks only because I don't know Italiano well enough to watch it without English subtitles.
Reminds me of a letter Giuseppe Garibaldi wrote the pope....
"If these hands, used to fighting, would be acceptable to His Holiness, we most thankfully dedicate them to the service of him who deserves so well of the Church and of the fatherland. Joyful indeed shall we and our companions in whose name we speak be, if we may be allowed to shed our blood in defence of Pius IX's work of redemption"
Your brother is lucky to have you as a bro. If my brothers witness me being treated that way, they'd cheer the abusing police on telling them to teach me a lesson.
I believe someone tried to say that the police officer who shot Mr. Brown in Ferguson, hated blacks because a black person shot and killed his father.....
""When McCulloch was 12, his father, a police officer, was killed in the line of duty," NPR's Elise Hu reported in August. "McCulloch is white. The man who shot his father was black. That history worries many in the community about the prosecutor's objectivity.""
he's pretty lucky it didn't get detected in any airport metal detection equipment or they'd have confiscated them as a WMD. I had one or two in my wallet once when their packaging was sensed by the airport authorities at port Columbus international.
Yeah, I guess, especially since Appalachian State University uses a Hillbilly as a mascot personifying that an ethnic group or ethnicity is a socially-defined category of people who identify with each other based on common ancestral, social, cultural or national experience.
RE: Ferguson Case !!
Protestors today through the USA want everyone to walk off the job because of what happened to Mr. Brown in Ferguson.President Obama meeting with civil rights leaders today about what happened to Mr. brown in Ferguson.
