Question from a non-US person:

Can you be fired in the US for being at these events - assume that there is no ambiguity as to why you were there?

Yes, and even if you get fired for something you're "not supposed to" unless you can afford a lawsuit ain't nothing gonna happen about it.

im pooping! posted:

For the record this means you can be fired for being black, or a woman. It comes up in the news when the boss has a big mouth and makes clear the real reason someone was fired.

Well, if the boss has a big mouth and mentions you were fired for being black or a woman that actually is completely illegal. Those are protected classes in US federal law. But you have to prove it which is very hard unless the boss is a complete idiot.

I'd also argue that he got fired because he brought about the rage of Yelp 1-star reviews to the Top Dog page. Do anything to harm business, and you bet your butt will be sent packing.

That's in addition to being part of a hate group.

Assholes are blaming counter protesters blocking the streets from letting ambulances and police from reaching the area quicker. They also claim that people that protest police brutality don't deserve police protection of any kind :downs:

If he didn't spend so much time being a huge piece of poo poo, maybe he could have bootstrapped his way into a nicer neighborhood.

Or, at least, he wouldn't have been away at a white supremacist rally to be burglarized at that time.

In the 2006 bulletin, the FBI detailed the threat of white nationalists and skinheads infiltrating police in order to disrupt investigations against fellow members and recruit other supremacists. The bulletin was released during a period of scandal for many law enforcement agencies throughout the country, including a neo-Nazi gang formed by members of the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department who harassed black and Latino communities. Similar investigations revealed officers and entire agencies with hate group ties in Illinois, Ohio and Texas.

Well, the employer could make a reasonable argument that this dude's beliefs cause an unsafe work environment and he was let go because of that.

In Texas (and other at-will states AFAIK) you don't even need an argument. They can fire you for literally no reason and that exact wording is in every employment contract you will ever sign. But it's totally fair because you can also quit at any time for any or no reason, because a person finding a job and a business filling a job are completely equal in every way right guys :thumbsup:

The article linked in the tweet:

quote:

When Mr. Kessler appeared, the crowed [sic] that had assembled called him a “murderer” and a “terrorist,” drowning out his words with cries of “shame, shame.”

The press conference ended when a man in a plaid shirt punched Mr. Kessler. Although the police detained him briefly, he was not arrested.

Well, the thing to remember is that cops in general are huge cowards.

Their job isn't even in the top ten most dangerous, but they keep crying about how scared they are at all times.
