SCOTUS Stupidity

[dblack]

Look for yet another bad decision from the Supremes:

Supreme Court showdown over Sabbath could change workplaces across US

A former U.S. postal worker is asking the Supreme Court to require employers to be more accommodating of religiously observant workers

The idea that an employer should be required to accommodate the religious practices of employees is ridiculous, and as a law is a direct violation of the First Amendment. It's part of the inversion - decimation - of individual rights. We're moving away from equal rights, that apply to everyone, to special rights for special people - identity politics.

What, you don't want to hear the call to prayer three to five times a day?

I agree. Owners should a run a business as they see fit.
If they don't want to hire Muslims, satanists, Jews, Christians, Hindus, climate changers, etc... they shouldn't have to.
The same goes for not hiring insane trannies or the other LGBFJB+ sexual deviants.

Same goes for landlords or those offering other services, such as bakeries.
In a free country, people are free to be assholes or saints.

I don't know what part of "Congress shall pass no law ..." they don't get.

It is the Supreme Court of decades ago that allowed the BS that the 14th Amendment applies to small businesses and individuals.

In fact, it was the 1960s Court that destroyed a significant black small business class and black neighborhoods when they ordered all businesses to offer service to everyone and compelled the integration of neighborhoods. And our violent crime rates also skyrocketed in the wake of those Court rulings.

So does that mean that if a job requires you work on weekends....why would you take it if you can't work on the weekends?

That's like taking the night shift....but you can't work at night.

Yeah, that's definitely a guy who calls the Civil War the 'War of Northern Aggression'.

Or church bells every hour?

I'll put you down as clueless. Reality never matters to hacks like you.

I agree. Your employer exists to provide a good or service to the public, not to give you a job.

Where are church bells ringing every hour? Oh, in your head, got it.

He had the job pre-Amazon....A bunch of rural carriers said "no-mas" and quit or retired in my AO. 16 hours 7 days a week were the norm.

Amazon paid-off the union for the whole Sunday delivery thing. The rank and file wanted no part of it.

It got so bad the counter staff were running Amazon packages on Saturday evenings and all day Sunday.

Do they bother you?

What about the numbers '666,' --- anything?

Yes, religious rights in the employment place should play no role legally at all.

Exactly. Neither should any of the "protected classes" bullshit.

Naah. How can an employer not also be a place to EMPLOY people? And a happy employee is a good, productive worker. A good employer offers good benefits. There is no reason why an employer cannot offer Sunday options to employees to accommodate their religious needs, maybe trade for something else or whatever, just as they make accommodations for pregnant women giving birth or having children.

It just becomes one more option a good employer can use to attract and keep good people.

So you oppose the part of the first amendment that interferes with his "free practice thereof" huh?

Pretty close to todays modern leftists and their forced segregation and racism

The question is whether they should be forced to do that.
