It's interesting that this article and Carr makes no reference to Mayor Tm Stewart - the Republican - who appointed Carr despite opposition from the unions and the Democrats or the fact that it was Stewart's desire to bring diversity to the city's firefighting ran. Where was the NAACP back then when we needed you?
Back then the NAACP was busy filing false criminal assault charges against an senior, female Republican B.O.E. member, presumably under the direction of Councilman Sherwood.
As I recall the unions and the liberals were against the Mayor hiring Carr and instead were pushing for the hiring of a white guy--weren't they?
(I remember the liberals attacking Carr for never having been a firefighter here in the US which always left me wondering if Democrats were of the opinion fires somehow burn differently in the UK)

Fires may not burn differently in other parts of the world but reality sure seems to stop existing inside the heads of Democrats.
