It appears the NHL has realized its discrimination and has changed its tune:
"The National Hockey League (NHL) reversed course late this week over a controversial job fair that was deemed “discriminatory” after Florida Republican Governor Ron DeSantis warned that it would not be tolerated in the state of Florida."
"The league said that the event was now open to anyone who wanted to attend as long as they were at least 18 years old. The league’s reversal came after Bryan Griffin, a spokesman for the governor, responded to the job fair in a statement, saying that this type of discriminatory job posting would not be tolerated in the state of Florida and that the league needs to “immediately remove and denounce the discriminatory prohibitions it has imposed.”
Good call NHL.. too little too late though. You clearly are bowing to the minority woke brigade. They ought to be ashamed to have attempted to pass Jim Crow legislation.. don't you agree Moonglow JoeB131 Superbadbrutha Golfing Gator ????
I agree they gave into the Woke DeSantis and should have stood up for their rights.
They did not attempt to pass any sort of legislation, they merely had a targeted job fair.
They are not a government entity and thus should not fall under any anti-discrimination rules/laws
