You Just Can't Please Some People

From the Baltimore Sun: Officials at BWI Thurgood Marshall Airport announced the hiring of its fire-and-rescue department's first Hispanic fire chief Thursday, shortly after acknowledging that they had terminated its acting chief, an African-American, the day before.
The hiring of Victor N. Ferreira Jr., a 52-year-old retired Prince George's County fire official, comes amid complaints about diversity within the airport's fire department, following the hiring of an all-white class of firefighter recruits last month.
Ferreira said in a statement that one of his goals is "to ensure a diverse, inclusive workforce."...
Meanwhile, officials with the International Association of Black Professional Fire Fighters and the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People questioned the airport's termination of Gregory Lawrence, who was named acting chief in November.
The two organizations criticized the airport's fire department about the all-white recruit class earlier this week.
Jacqueline Boone Allsup, president of the NAACP's Anne Arundel branch, said the group's concerns about the fire department's diversity involve low numbers of women and Hispanic candidates as well, and she was happy that diversity was kept in the chief position.
However, she wants to know why Lawrence was shown the door.
"Why was he fired?" she said. "Right now I don't have any information."

So, these so-called civil rights organization protest when the airport fire dept. doesn't hire any minorities in one class and they want someone's head.
So, when the airport fires the chief, the one responsible for the hiring, and who happens to be black, they cry about that.
If it were a white fire chief, these so-called civil rights would have called for his head on a platter, but because it was a black chief, they whine.  My guess the so-called civil rights groups didn't know the color of the chief when they complained.
Hypocrites.
