There are no stupid questions
Wait, yes there are:
As the movement to eliminate tenure takes hold, it’s worth asking advocates for dismissal of incompetent teachers whether they think that teachers are the only underperforming public-sector workers. Do they also favor more dismissals of subpar police officers and firefighters?
Yes. Would you rather incompetent firefighters come put out your house?

Would you rather an incompetent cop came and shot you instead of the bad guy? Lots of those running around.

As a retired Firefighter, I’m here to tell you that FIREFIGHTERS dont want sub-par firefighters in their departments. In that job, someone who has piss poor performance is a serious hazard to his/her fellow firefighters. The job is hazardous enough without adding incompetance of personnel to it.
One incompetant person on a fire crew can get everyone else on the crew seriously hurt or killed so yes, we’re rather particular about personnel quality.
WE weed out the incompetants ourselves. Now if only LEOs would do the same…
