    The story was very incomplete. Can’t really tell who’s right and who’s wrong. I mean, unless there’s a good reason, the S.O. would have to be pretty doggoned STUPID to be firing someone who’s in the middle of a lawsuit against them. So what’s the real story? Is it weenie women who want a tough job without being tough enough to do it, are they a drag on the department, or is there real serious discrimination against the women? What IS the true story?
    P.S. Not THIS paper’s fault it’s incomplete, the link’s story is incomplete.
