Chicago must hire 111 African-American firefighters and adjust their pensions as if they had been on the job since 1995.

Disgusting.

Guess they forgot this part of Kings' speech.
Stay safe, Brothers.

OMFG!!!
Ain't this the truth!!
As if the City of Chicago doesn't have enough money problems. Can you imagine one of these guys coming into your station as the "new guy" with 16 years of pension but not a day on the job?? Makes my stomach turn just thinking about it.

I was out there for Hertbie Johnson's funeral and was told a handful quit. Can't wait for the wonders to come on my job who can score a 25 or higher. God help us.
Stay safe, Brothers.

How are they being accepted and more importantly, how are they performing the job?
