LAFD’s $300K-per-year diversity chief sparks fury for defending DEI by blaming the victim: ‘He got himself in the wrong

[Maximum Overkill 2,410]

Nazi Dems at it again. Spreading their hate and divide.

As Los Angeles battles its worst fires in history, the fire department’s highly paid diversity head is facing an inferno of backlash after a bizarre comment surfaced in which she appears to defend DEI hiring by blaming victims.

In a video defending the department’s DEI hiring practices, Deputy Chief Kristine Larson — who heads the Equity and Human Resources Bureau — addressed accusations that female firefighters aren’t strong enough to carry a man out of a burning building.

California just isn’t a serious place. It’s like a state run by middle schoolers.

Not just Cali. It’s the fire service all over the country.  She’s trying to gaslight viewers into thinking it’s no big deal that she can’t do her job, therefore anyone can do it.  Your emergency, your fault.  It’s an affront to every real fireman that took an oath to protect life.  She’s literally a walking, talking bag of sh!t.

Communist middle schoolers with a fairytale utopia view of the world that will never work.

The American Left and the left in general in the Western world has a SERIOUS Marxism/Communism issue, but they want to gaslight everyone into thinking the KKK is the problem.  An organization they actually founded.

Stop being divisive.

And it's spelled R-E-S-E-R-V-O-I-R

Yeah, it's only ok for the left to do that up until the election.  After the divisiveness served it's purpose, it shouldn't be done anymore.

She should have been fired immediately after that. But I bet she wasn’t even spoken to.  Meanwhile if you don’t use someone’s preferred pronouns you have to go to sensitivity training.

Oh, I'm sure she was spoken to, but not the way she should have.  She was probably just told to not say that in public and probably told how to do damage control, but that's it.

I only said that to him because he's been doing the same schtick recently. Relax muffin.

The point still remains and you know it's true.  It's why you're trying to down play it as a joke.

Thanks. Being told what I think is the very best thing about conversing with MAGAs. I can never get enough of it. 

Do you really think it was something other than a joke referencing his own posts? You think that anyone telling people here to be less divisive legitimately thinks they're making a point that will be acknowledged? 

Like I said before, I used to think you were smart, but you have decisively proven me wrong.

LOL, what an idiot.  I didn't tell you what to think... YOU SAID what YOU THINK.   "I only said that to him because he's been doing the same schtick recently."

I just pointed out the facts.  You're free to ignore or accept them as you wish.

Well, I will thank you for thinking I was smart... I never thought you were.

There you go again, spewing hate in the Forum. Making fun of people for misspellings and their beliefs. This hatred and divide will no longer be tolerated. 

You're a DEI poster.

I drove a wheelchair access van all over the Detroit area in 2023 waiting for my teaching license to come through. Consequently, I got to know dozens of disabled clients/friends and saw first hand how sometimes large men fall on the floor and their small wives/family can't get them back in their bed or chair and need to dial 911. When they do, you need muscle, Period. It's the local fire department that comes out to help.

Love that nobody thought there was anything wrong with saying that.

A thread that crumbles the DEI house of cards is pretty quiet?  Shocking…

Yep. More proof of how deep this poison has been allowed to penetrate. 

[Hardcore troubadour 15,911]

It’s a shame that so much destruction at the hands of DEI/ woke had to occur for many to see how destructive and dangerous to the country it is. Needs to be banned like so many other failed social engineering attempts.

Of course they did not say anything. The cult of DEI would mark you as out of step with their goals and fire you. I have had to bite my tongue so many times over the years when I hear a hiring manager tell me they want a DEI candidate instead of a white male who was exceptional at their job.
