How about... NO.

Mary Wolski was PA's very first female firefighter. Mary Wolski was fired. Mary considers this a grave injustice and a violation of her rights.

This leads me to ask, why did she get fired? Silly thing. They say she poses a threat to herself and others. Why do they think that? Oh, it might be because she burned her fathers house down in a suicide attempt. Two things: One, I'd fire any firefighter who turns into an arsonist. Two, I'm not really comfortable with a suicidal firefighter being sent in to rescue me, or to support the rest of the crew.

Maybe it's just me. Maybe there are some facts out there that don't show up on google. But there ain't no way I let her back to work. Suicide is a big issue for any employer. It's even more so when the employee is responsbile for the lives of citizens, her co-workers, and herself.

Combine that with the fact she attempted to kill herself using arson as her tool? Nah, fuck you. You're fired. I don't care if you male, female, or hermaphrodite. You're fired. Shut the fuck up.

I have a problem with anyone using their "minority" status as their gripe for being fired when they know damn well that is NOT the reason.

Ms. Wolski, go tell it to your shrink and leave the rest of us out of it!

A clear lack of common sense and rational judgment is hardly "discrimination". Fire-fighting is a high stress job, clearly anyone who gets suicidal is better off *not* participating for their mental health as well as ours.
