Can you imagine at work, you are being harassed and the company tells the harasser to stop but he doesn't stop so the company lays him off. He sues his firing and wins…
He gets rewarded for harassing and discriminating against another employee.
You are going to see more cases like this where people claim that it is their right to discriminate against people and with the new federal judges that were appointed by Trump and blessed by McConnell who put their religious beliefs above the Constitution.
This is going to bite the Republicans in the a** shortly. Somebody somewhere is going to say that “it is against my firmly held religious beliefs to serve a bigot.”
Already down in Arizona the government arrested a man for helping undocumented immigrants by giving them water, food, and shelter but the jury didn’t convict him. In part his defense was based on religious freedom.
A boss who harassed a gay employee will get $100k payout because he’s a ChristianIsn’t that sick?
He's getting a "get out of trouble free" pass because of his religion.

A parks supervisor in Spokane who was demoted for harassing a gay employee got his job back, with a $100,000 settlement with the city, which he accused of anti-Christian discrimination.
In October 2018, Spokane Parks and Recreation Department supervisor Adriano Eva started making homophobic comments to a seasonal employee, Conor Wigert. When Wigert complained to human resources, Eva was investigated and then demoted in December, then eventually laid off.

In April, he won his appeal to the Civil Service Commission and was reinstated. He has been on paid leave since, but he was seeking compensation for lost wages, harm for his future job prospects, and emotional trauma from the ordeal. In the settlement with the city of Spokane, he gets $100,000 but has to give up his claim without the city admitting wrongdoing.

The city appealed the Commission’s decision, saying that it was surprising that the Commission didn’t believe that Eva’s behavior was inappropriate and that there is “no legitimate business reason” for a supervisor to discuss an employee’s sexuality.But then the city took the cheapest way out… pay him off.

This is totally disgusting. And in Spokane? God help us all because we will all need this. So, I wonder what's next?
ReplyDelete"Christian" has now become the new Republican code word for intolerant bigot. I wonder what ever happened to "let ye without sin cast the first stone"
