and? there are groups these days for everything. Minorities controlling things with the power of whine.
But that being said if you make a statement out in public for the public to listen to. This includes facebook if you dont make your posts private. Then you can't go crying when the reaction is negative. There is consequences for your actions.
Call an Asian a yellow gook bastard Or declare that Blacks and other minorities inferior and shouldn't shop where you shop. Then get ready to be labeled a racist.
This is where people really dont understand Political correctness and freedom of speech. Phil, this veg lady still have the right to speak their mind and they are protected. What they can't be protected from is people reactions ( non-violent) I have the right to vote,speak,protest, and lobby to have you fired under my 1st amendment rights. Doesnt make me right, but i have that freedom in the end of day. Its up to the public and the company ( if there is one like A&E ) to listen or ignore me.
Most of the time if you ignore people like Phil the issue goes away within a day or two.
The Mozilla CEO caught hell for a donation he made years ago before he became CEO.
These people are combing the internet for ways to attack anyone that dares to be conservative or profess conservative viewpoints.
nobody held a gun to his head to donate, and Modzilla is a private business who decided they didn't need his services. That is the consequences for his actions.
You know for a party that constantly talks about Personal responsibility, you sure as hell hate applying it to these situations. I mean i know there is a need to be a partisan hack but you would think you would try to be 100% on one topic.
Personally.. I have removed firefox etc from my computer now BECAUSE of the words from the new CEO who escorted this guy out...
They claim they are for equality and free speech.. seems like it is only when it is one political direction and when it does not offend a target group... It is not truly about free speech and equality.. if it were, the guy would still have his job
It seems to be now that all sorts of freak show attitudes, freakish abnormal behaviors, etc are to be forced into the realm of equal treatment to be forced upon others.. but equal treatment of those with an opposing voice must forcibly be ostracized, forcibly removed, and blacklisted so they have no future at all..
Our society is so fucked
