In Dayton, they administer a civil service test for aspiring police officers. Everyone gets the same test, and is thus held to the same standard. Equality. All good.
Comes the Holder Justice Department, and apparently not so much. Not enough black applicants have passed, thus the test must be revised until they do...

Makes my head hurt that our first black President, and his black Attorney General, have such an astonishing lack of confidence in the members of the black community to compete successfully on an equal playing field. Sad, really.
And that they'd risk the lives and safety of an entire community on their lack of confidence by lowering the standard to which police officer applicants are held...well...
The NAACP, oddly enough, seems to hold much the same view...
It seems a mighty strange way to define equality...
Meh... I'm not getting anywhere near Dayton in the next few years, just in case...
