Matt Walsh (@MattWalshBlog) ~ The Nashville Police Department lowered its fitness requirements to recruit more women. This is what the physical fitness test looks like now. It looks like an obstacle course set up for third graders at recess. My four year old daughter could pass this test.

It's cringeworthy to watch.
Matt Walsh (@MattWalshBlog) ~ As a resident of Nashville I can only hope that the only people committing crimes in this city are 600 pounds and have no legs. But even then they could probably roll away fast enough to escape.
Probably.
Elon Musk (@elonmusk) ~ Physical fitness tests have been lowered for the military too.
This is going to get people -- women chief among them -- hurt or killed.
Wisco_Knight (@FAFO_Wisco) ~ Wait until one is overpowered and raped by a suspect.
Or overpowered and beaten or shot.
Paul A. Szypula (@Bubblebathgirl) ~ The U.S. Air Force lowered its fitness requirements also due to poor recruitment numbers and to lure more women. NYPD did the same thing. What do you think happens when you lower standards for applicants?
Nothing good.
You get the NYPD Dance Team - that's what happens!

Robbie Parlane (@RParlane) ~ This is why forced 'equity' will be the end of western civilization. This is not 'compassion', this is simply designed to destroy and degrade society.
Vince Coglianese (@VinceCoglianese) ~ Nickelodeon used to have an entire lineup of TV shows where little kids did more challenging things than this.
Clay Travis (@ClayTravis) ~ This looks like a fake parody video. Crazy idea: don’t worry about hiring women police officers if you have to lower physical standards to do it.
Dr_Insensitive_Jerk (@DrInsensitive) ~
How it always happens:
1. Let women join if they meet the fitness standards.
2. Not enough women meet the fitness standards.
3. Lower the fitness standards.
4. Men carry the women.
5. Accuse men of 'mansplaining' and 'sexism' for carrying the women.
Steven Guilbeault Minister of Environment PARODY (@bill_c10) ~ This is too hard. It’s unfair. Folx who are over 350 lbs and who need to pull an oxygen canister behind them will be excluded. This will reduce diversity in the police force. Unacceptable.
Tongue is planted firmly in cheek here, but don't give them any ideas.
