It does not say they learn anything about trucks. This course was about internal fire preventions systems. |

You have the burden of proof, and you have not proven much. The test could still be bogus. All we know about it indicated that it was. And we don't know that these tutor did teach any firefighting information. |

The books could have been about operating procedures used in different areas that used different equipment. We have no idea if the experience would be at all useful in New Haven. The only indication we have, says that it was inappropriate for New Haven. |

Re: Court rules for white firefighters over promotions
There is no pressurized gas unless you are talking about CO2 fire extinguishers.

Re: Court rules for white firefighters over promotions
It's a fair bet, though, that you know a fuck of a lot less.
If one thing in this thread is clear, it's that you don't know the first thing about what you're talking about. You've chosen not only to remain ignorant about it, but you continue to post as if you know a single fucking thing about the topic. You don't. That's clear...

Re: Court rules for white firefighters over promotions
CO2 is the only pressurized gas used in fighting fires?

Re: Court rules for white firefighters over promotions
What do you want them to do? List all materials discussed in the course, as well as the actual discussion? It's rather clear when describing what they teach.

However, in order to prove your statement that "The test was blatantly unfair" with the claim "The books could have been about operating procedures used in different areas that used different equipment," you'd actually have to prove that the books WERE about operating procedures of different areas that had totally different operating procedures from the area where the test took place.

Re: Court rules for white firefighters over promotions
You said "The test was blatantly unfair." So the burden is on you to prove that.

Well, okay, that last one has already been proven by other means. Quote:

So perhaps, just maybe, knowing about those things would be useful? Dude, just face it - you're completely wrong. Man up, admit it, and move on. You're just floundering around on this, way out of your depth. Matt |

The burden of proof is on you - I've simply been refuting your uninformed statements. As far as the tutors, it's a pointless and stupid argument. Was there a regulation forbidding tutors? If not, where's the issue? Matt |

Never heard of Halon? It's in those "internal building systems" you know nothing about. It's also a bit important, as it can kill you if you get caught in it without SCBA. Never heard of CAFS? No surprise there, because you don't know what you are talking about. Matt |

Have you ever heard of mutual aid? Do you think trucks ever get replaced? Quote:
No, that's just a symptom of your inability to think beyond a single article. |

Re: Court rules for white firefighters over promotions
There are specialized halogen systems, etc., but not normally used at firehouses like in New Haven.
These are usually built in systems, or used at special places, like airport, ships, etc. Why would a potential New Haven fire captain need to know the physics of pressurized gases? |
