Man wears Obama mask for Halloween

[Ernie S.]

There are not two sides -- Agreeing Those Offended are being silly does not imply support for hysterical buffoons with faux outrage over company policy to attend a sensitivity training.

An awareness campaign is NOT punishment. Dante on one job was forced twice by company policy to attend sensitivty trainings, it made for great debate and discussion afterwards. Some minds were stuck like mud on tbe walls,,,many minds were changed and amused on a few levels.


Lighten up righties. This outrage bullshit is sooooo old

There is only one side, the people who are offended are idiots. The rest of us can safely ignore the idiots.

Well you surely set a very high bar on how to ignore idiots

Actually, it's quite easy. All one needs to do is type in your name, check a box and save changes.

 

[Procrustes Stretched]

this pc idiocy is jut getting totally out of control

he is a politician. what the heck has diversity to do with this stupidity?

Nothing.

Just like Rush Limbaugh being constantly outraged over things. PC crap crosses all boundaries.

Dante says "Bring on the hate!" "F©k sensitivity!"

We also have stuttering imbeciles doing libertarian outrage like John Sto,sto,stossell

Who are you referring to when you say "they" made it political?

All the people that were "offended" because a black president was mocked.

How in the lily white, cracker world of wingnut nation could you know WHY people were offended?

who cares if they were?
the guy is fucking politician and a fail as a president. It is a virtue to mock him

As usual Ernestine is off in right field

Who cares if people are offended at a work place? Evidently the work place does. Lawsuit potentiality aside...

It kills harmony and productivity.

We live in a world where those people as well as you and quantumblowhard are constantly offended and outraged

except the guy supposedly "offended" has nothing to do with the hospital - he is a minister in the church.

Want a real What the Fuck quote?

1st Street Baptist Church Pastor C.E. Timberlake says it's wrong to portray any president that way.
"I think it's very offensive and really that shouldn't have happened," Timberlake said. "There are other characters they could have dressed up and put a straitjacket other than the President of this country,"

Obama costume scares up controversy

Of course people showed nothing but the utmost respect - almost reverence, really - when President Bush was in office.


...

 

[Ernie S.]

Who said it was illegal?

Somebody must think it is, why else would they be worried about it?

A civil suit over a hostile work environment would not require "mocking the President" to be illegal.

How exactly is the work environment hostile? Would it have been hostile to dress George Bush in a straight jacket?

Of course this is political. barack obama is a politician and ever since January of 09, any criticism, satire or mocking of the POTUS has been considered racist by the race baiters.

Then tell the Minister to go screw himself. Why would a company care about it's employees offending an invited quest or dignatary. Don't thye know we live in a Brave New World of Instant Outrage?

Jesus Christ, burn him at the stake!

Two wrongs always make a rightie right.

Always using the "but Johnnie did it too!" Defense.

No, just questioning the tactics of the left's professional race baiters.

And please give us your answer to the question. Calling me names is NOT an answer.

 

[Trajan]

Ok, I'll try and play devils advocate; I am a personnel resources manager, HR call it what you like, I am sitting there with the Hospital lawyer, we are thinking OK, someone came dressed as the president, in a strait jacket and they decide, hey, we need diversity training based on this incident because, we need to get ahead of a lawsuit that may be brought/initiated becasue someone at the party was offended by said costume, their case would be-_______________what? ....the party was offended.....how/why?

wheres the jump off point?

And whats more; why is Diversity Training seen as an out?

Diversity training is a course of instruction aimed at increasing the participants' cultural awareness, knowledge, and skills in order to benefit an organization by protecting against civil rights violations, by increasing the inclusion of different identity groups, and by promoting better teamwork.

it is a bullshit blah-blah-blah which nobody listens to since everybody is checking their messages or e-mails, but they have to put a check-mark - done. but that is the minimum what the company can do as a defense
