The agency also falls far below the national average of female representation in law enforcement, with women making up a paltry 4 percent of state troopers.

Samuel Walker, a professor emeritus at the University of Nebraska at Omaha and an expert on police accountability, described that rate as "impermissibly low." Women make up about 13 percent of law enforcement nationally but are better represented in larger, municipal forces.


Yeah, because in those other departments the women have partners...troopers ride alone 99.9% of the time.

Not many women want to do that.

The feds took particular exception to the agency's entrance examination, noting that 66 percent of white applicants passed the test between 1991 and 1996, compared with 25 percent of black applicants.



ahh...so its the tests' fault

Why don’t they get on Tarsha’s case for the EBRCOA being overwhelmingly comprised of black females?

Okay, I hate affirmative action, but that cartoon is retarded. The white guy isn't competing with gangbanger pothead morons, but with minorities with similar qualifications. Yes, hiring those people based solely on race is still wrong, but no one is THAT underqualified like shown in the cartoon.

The first to lose their job to the "pathetic sword of diversity".... should be the cuck who wrote the article.

Yeah diversity, frick merit!

Normally, I say frick diversity, YEAH MERIT.

But in this case, perhaps these cocksucking libs should get a taste of their own medicine.

And learn FIRSTHAND how fricking retarded liberal policies are.

My take - Gordon Russell looks like the douche who will become the slaughtered scapegoat.

I took the test around 2010 or so before they changed it..It was pretty much common sense and paying attention to your surroundings..Someone comes into the room and screws around with some stuff and suddenly part of the exam was describing what just happened...It was in no way biased, it weeded out exactly who it needed to..

I turned down going into the LSP because the pay was shite compared to my current job was paying by the time they had an open class 3 years later

ETA: You also needed a degree or some type of Military service so that would eliminate a few dozen people right there

Its literally like browsing a porn site. Pop up ads floating across the screen with an 'X' to close the ad that has an opacity of like 10 so you can barely see it, or it doesn't appear for 10 seconds, then a pop up video at the bottom right with no volume control or X. Its pathetic.

While it's obviously hyperbolic, it lampoons the "diversity for diversity's sake" movement.

They put the Comments section back up and open BUT they moved the story to the very bottom of their page. They are definitely reading what is going on here.

frickers are smart enough to have the delivery guys throw that piece of shite on the public servitude and not on private property where they can be fined for littering.

They started throwing a paper in front of my office about a month ago, two weeks later they are calling and sending us an invoice. I thought they were joking at first

Meanwhile, at the Lafayette Advertiser which Georges also owns, the two executives there are white men.
