Why is a 39.5 inch wide male cop acceptable when a 35 inch wide female cop isn’t?

All the fucking Blue Lives Matter bullshit, and “oh we’d love to get rid of bad apples, but it’s just so darn tough!” but for this all of a sudden firing is a routine procedure. I suppose fascists do love a trim figure…

“A” for effort, but they got the tat location wrong. We ALL know that’s his tramp stamp, not a belly band.

According to documents obtained by the Dallas Morning News, men with waists sizes over 40 inches and women over 35 inches will now have to track and share their weight loss efforts.

Er shouldn’t the limit be based on a number of factors? Like height and build come into play as to what size you wear.

So they can recruit younger women for entry level jobs but find ways to force them out or keep them from getting promoted into leadership roles.

Because a waist size metric is transparently an appearance goal not health or fitness and appearance standards are more stringent and contradictory for females?

And the lawsuits will start in 3… 2… 1…

So making these geniuses wear masks during a global pandemic violates their freedoms, but firing them for being overweight doesn’t. Interesting.

That requires just the merest soupcon of thought on the part of the PD. Too many numbers to think about, for Pete’s sake! One number at a time! Too many cop brain-busting measurements!

First they start with the waistline measurement, then it’s the penis measurement.
