Nobody wants this lady responding to their burning building

[chrisbroussard]

I'm a straight white male. Does that mean I should want someone who looks like me? How about, just send the most qualified firefighters.

[cindywilbur]

So if someone is trapped by fire, collapsed from smoke inhalation or disabled, it's their own fault? Shameful!

[AmandaTexas]

If she's not fired already, what has this world come to? A husband could be in a wheelchair, or in an arson incident, or trapped injured in an earthquake, or, or, or, but this is what LAFD deems acceptable to put out? Shameful and embarrassing.

That’s like a pilot saying “well if I have to land this plane safely with all of you in it, you got yourself in the wrong situation”
TF!?

[mvf]

I don’t give an eff who responds to my medical call just as long as they are able bodied and qualified to save my friggin life.

[dillydanny-o]

If we want someone that looks like us to respond to our emergency, then sorry but she isn’t qualified for that either….

[alecktra]

I like how "Matthew" Walsh is the face of the big burly man. 😄

[RobinBaich]

You could say this lady is a last responder.

[smakabe]

This "Fireman" has the "Didn't want your house to burn? Well you shouldn't have built it there!" mentality. No one wants people like this to be in control of emergency situations!

[sherrifox]

What in the actual hell did she just say?? Victim Blaming at its finest

[chaspruitt]

Nope, I want someone qualified to show up!! Not some DEI hire

[dashpoint]

Let's all bow our heads in a moment of silence for all the men that have perished waiting for this thing...

[kathylongbeachca]

I cringe as she says “he got himself in the wrong place if I have to carry him out of a fire” DEI hires have got to GO NOW.

[eaglesmight]

I guess she doesn't know what her job is.

[hrdley]

She should be fired immediately. No pension. Do not pass go! It's like saying that if he didn't want to get shot, he shouldn't have been working at a store. And you wonder why LA is burning down 🤬

[loreenahaire]

DANG 😲 I am SO glad I left Calli 39 years ago! The leaders are IDIOTS 👎

[jtkirkfan]

I wouldn’t want her responding to anything to do with me. She isn’t qualified to sell lottery tickets at a gas station.

[Bhoneyb]

I’m a woman and if a firefighter has to save me it had better be be a man!

[Julia-enxq]

I am a 61 year old woman with bad knees…gimme a firefighter just like me!!!!

[dougiebear]

As a retired fireman, I can say I was never turned away from someone needing help because I was not their same race or gender.
