Your agency has gotten to "PC", and it is starting to show and will only get worse. The best person for the job mentality no longer exists, now it is the best qualified, which doesn't mean squat when you can manipulate the qualifications to make them be what you want it to be or to make them fit for certain people to give them a better chance. Your SWAT team is a perfect example, and from what I hear, your promotional process will follow.
