I find it amazing that anything like this would get through any reasonable HR screening process!
My guess is that the "equal opportunity" is related to sex, race, religion, etc., but that specific physical capabilities are required anyway.
Our US friends are usually either well beyond our EU common standards when it comes for "politically correct" or surprisingly blunt and direct on things that we would usually consider "inappropriate". :w00t:
It's just like their safety rules, and the obsession for putting warning stickers/signs everywhere.
One for all, the rear mirror thingy:

U.S, PART 571 Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards, Section 571.111 S5.4.2 "Each convex mirror shall have permanently and indelibly marked at the lower edge of the mirror's reflective surface, in letters not less than 4.8 mm nor more than 6.4 mm high the words ``Objects in Mirror Are Closer Than They Appear."
Which is Ok in itself, but surprising to me in a country where (in a number of states) you can buy a semi-automatic assault rifle without any particular formality and you have metal detectors and/or policemen at the entrance of a number of schools....
