These words reference the controversial remarks made by former Los Angeles Fire Department (LAFD) Deputy Chief Kristine Larson. [1]
In a viral video discussing diversity and physical requirements within the fire service, Larson defended the department's policies by saying a hypothetical victim "got himself in the wrong place" if she was unable to carry him out of a fire. Her comments sparked fierce public backlash, with critics and commentators accusing her of victim-blaming.
