    why shouldn't you be able to fire someone for their political views? that's not a protected class.
    partially right and wrong....but if you believe in this then im stunned...to me this would fall under activities outside of work and would be a non fire-able offense

    Political affiliation/activities: Not all states have laws prohibiting political affiliation discrimination or termination for political activities, but many do. So do some counties and cities. The Civil Service Reform Act of 1978 prohibits political affiliation discrimination against federal employees. In Michigan, the laws prohibit direct or indirect threats against employees for the purpose of influencing their vote. It also prohibits tracking of political activity. In Ohio, West Virginia, Pennsylvania and Kentucky, employers are prohibited from posting or handing out notices threatening to shut down or lay off workers if a particular candidate is elected. In Oregon, it’s illegal to threaten loss of employment in order to influence the way someone votes. In Washington State, it’s illegal to retaliate against employees for failing to support a candidate, ballot position or political party. Some states, like California, Colorado, New York, North Dakota and Louisiana, say it’s illegal to retaliate against an employee for their off-duty participation in politics or political campaigns. In Florida, it’s a felony to “discharge or threaten to discharge any employee in his or her service for voting or not voting in any election, state, county, or municipal, for any candidate or measure submitted to a vote of the people.”

    Activity outside work: Some states and localities prohibit employers for firing or disciplining employees for legal activities outside work. If you’re involved in a political campaign and you work in one of these states, you can’t be fired for your political activities as long as they are legal activities.

    So fucked up, he can live with me. I just want to give him a giant hug and tell him it will be okay. Are all Hillary voters this abusive to their children? Is this one of those "Highly educated voters" we hear so much about?

    That is probably one of the stupidest questions ever asked on this forum.

    I dont agree with his statement to his employees, but seriously, intolerance for hate and racism is bigotry now?

    I feel like people around here need to go back to middle school.

    Keep cherry picking all these stupid little stories to fit your hateful narrative, just like you blasted hillary supporters for doing the past 18 months.

    Unreal.

    dangerously close to name-calling here...

    why do we still have political parties? why do we still separate people into groups?

    It's our most basic instinct besides self preservation.

    His statement was actually not what is being portrayed if you read it. He was dismissing behavior like Trump used to get elected as unacceptable. A little spin going on here.
    It's a hopeless situation...

    Wow, fuck her. Hopefully she gets run over by a car and her kids can find a loving home with intelligent parenting.

    what do expect when the candidate who won campaign spewed this type of rhetoric on a daily basis? are we really surprised that people now feel emboldened to use that rhertoric in public and against others?

    No, this thread is largely productive talk, and should it deeply deeply offend anyone, they can easily attend one of the cry-in sessions, call in sick or ask for a visit from a therapy dog.

    how about personal accountability? these racist existed before this election he didn't create them or ill even defend him and say he didnt even give them a platform...the only thing you can hold your hat on to is the fact that he guy cant articulate himself the greatest and leaves some comments painted with a broad brush

    he gets called a racist and for what? saying illegal immigrants? for saying we are going to put a hold of immigrants coming from countries with know terrorist ties until we get a good vetting system? for saying "some" people from Mexico come over here and rape and kill people? Kate's law anyone? The irony is that i only date Mexican/Spanish/Latino women and the one im dating now doesn't like Trump and i get it she is a legal citizen brought over here illegally by family and half of her family is illegal....does it piss me off? yes because they did it wrong BUT they work their ass off and send money back home to help other family so i get it, but a wrong is a wrong

    people saying they'd move to canada if trump won was ridiculous and stupid from the start. if it was hitler running, fine, but come on. this guy has 4 years and if he's that bad he's toast.

    unless hillary runs again.

    Not just that but Dick Cheney VP part 2 electric boogaloo.

    Pot is now legal in my state and I've got relatives here to console for the next 4 years go I ain't moving out of Calilandia anyways. Stay strong, red state progressives.

    You are.

    There, I won the argument with two words against your many fact free words. Have fun with Cheney 2.0, klansman.

    Klansman? I mean, I understand we are airing our thoughts on the website forums of a rock and roll band and not a more formal setting, but this, sir, is pattently untrue. I don't think anything I've said begets a response like this, and I can assure you, the person I am does not either.

    I sat down two weeks before the election with four people whom I represent, all undocumented, all hard working, two with families and all four seriously injured as a result of a car accident. I spoke with them about how they and their community felt about a possible Trump nomination, utter terror. I went home and thought of them all night, near tears. We have to make tought decisions, I assure you that the decision to vote for Donald Trump was hard on many, and yes, easy for a racist faction. The thing is, you don't have the right to call be a racist, biggot and xenophobe, not me and not anyone else based solely on how they voted. I have no hate in my heart and you don't have the right to try to plant it their either.

    Facts in a single meme over not a single one in a triple letter paragraph. Thanks for proving my point, deplorable.

    No, because I hate her too but thanks for lumping all Trump haters as Hillary lovers. Cool no true scostman fallacy, brah. Preferring her over Trump is like preferring Phantom Menace over Attack of the Clones. Crap is crap either way.

    Oh, and she won the popular vote but that's none of my or Kermit's business.

    No, I'm good. It is covered by insurance for certain conditions. I worked with someone who was diabetic that had one. That dog was amazing. Knew when he had low blood sugar and could open the desk drawer to get out his kit. Never knew they existed like that until then.

    This whole section should be closed. I would never be like this with Romney or McCain. This is different big time and I feel the same towards Killary too. There should be an ignore function. I don't want to deal with deplorables or Clinton voters who were anti Bernie and Stein from day one.

    That doesn't make sense.
    So you only want to deal w/ people who think and vote like you?
    Is that what you are trying to say?
