"Prince George's Police Graduation Reflects Shortage of Officers in County and Nationwide."
PGCE-P: Gee, why is this?
Say, what happened in Ferguson a few years ago?

This is nothing new. Decades ago I knew a white man who was rejected from the Albuquerque police department while another I knew with a Hispanic name was hired. I also talked to someone in Wisconsin who told me that the Milwaukee police department came right out and told him that they were NOT looking for white men. These incidents happened over 3 decades ago, so the anti-white program has been going for a very long time. Finally, what kind of white man wants to be a policeman when if you aren't killed by the criminals, you can be prosecuted and end up in prison for doing your job?
GRA:White cops still believe in enforcing the law on blacks AND whites.However,they are being pushed out of LE by lib mayors and city managers(who are most likely blackies).This brought to mind,this column,by Simon Black--a few thoughts on hiring "the lesser qualified".
(ZH)Recently the prominent investment bank Goldman Sachs announced that they would no longer work with companies whose Boards of Directors consisted exclusively of white males.
Specifically the bank will immediately require prospective clients to have at least one female or one non-white individual, on the Board of Directors. And by 2021, a company would need at least two ‘diverse’ directors, otherwise Goldman Sachs will refuse to underwrite that company’s Initial Public Offering.
(Obviously this doesn’t apply to Chinese or Middle Eastern companies; Goldman Sachs is happy to continue selling its soul to non-diverse companies in those parts of the world.)
But Goldman is just the latest bank to make this announcement.
BlackRock and State Street Global Advisors, two of the largest asset managers in the world, also recently stated that they would vote against directors at the companies in which they are shareholders, unless those Boards have at least one female member.
Everything about this is remarkably stupid.
In the case of BlackRock and State Street, there are literally ZERO companies in the S&P 500 anymore that have all-male boards. None. And a recent Harvard study showed that 80% of large-cap companies have at least two female directors, if not more.
So their supposedly bold proclamation is completely pointless, except to demonstrate their ‘wokeness’ to Millennials.
More importantly, though, it highlights a major revolution in capitalism itself.
Business and capitalism should be the ultimate meritocracy. Talent rises to the top. Mediocrity stagnates. And poor performance washes out.
But talent has no gender. It has no ethnicity. It has no sexual orientation.
GRA:Correct--and hiring with quotas in mind--not only makes the company weaker,but the city,state and country that company is located in, less successful as well.
All in all,another horrible idea by liberals.
