They’re better athletes overall. DEI has to go. 
What are your thoughts?

But they are slow to respond.

Leave it up to the "white" folks that decides what qualifies as always.

The question is, will a white respond to a black first responder?

A question for that "white" that has to make a response.

I really don’t think race matters here. Plenty of fit guys of other races that can do the job as well

Does that mean DEI has to go. ?

Yes. We should stop thinking about race when hiring people. Anyone can do the job if they have the skills.

Shouldn’t we be allowed to pick who we like?

I would suggest that the primary qualification should be knowledge and the ability to apply it.

Anyone can be fit enough.

Maybe dick size isn't so important in this type of working environment... Unless it is a new resuscitation method that I don't know about.

A responsive dick can be very reassuring.

Good thing he did not choose a career as a belly dancer.

I'm uncertain about Blacks being better athletes,
Some of what I've read suggests certain sports have been culturally gravitated to by Black Americans.

I've also read arguments such as 'specific groups within ethnic groups
"He says that while we tend to think of Kenyans as really good distance runners, all these runners are actually from the same tribe of Kenyans known as the Kalenjin. They number around 5 million, making them a small minority, even in Kenya, yet they dominate most of the world's long-distance races."

I imagine there are good and bad athletes of many races.
Never looked into it much really,
Not that I don't think there are clumps of genetics and degrees of genetic outcomes.

But as other people say, if the individual can do the job.

How do they explain the difference in stamina in black Kenyan athletes?

I don't know,
I'd assume a mix of culture and evolution. Just a guess on my part though.
An example in another part of the world.

"The Bajau are traditionally nomadic and seafaring, and survive by collecting shellfish from the sea floor.
Scientists studying the effect of this lifestyle on their biology found their spleens were larger than those of related people from the region."

To be a good long distance runner like the Kenyans they have to have better stamina.
