It means your employer reserves the right to fire you for basically whatever they want regardless of your freedom to say whatever you want.
Had to explain this shyt my class. They think they can say whatever they want in school and not get in trouble for it.


Hit em with that :ufdup:

Because most trans people don't look like that. I didn't call that person a caricature, I said they're a caricature of the trans community. It feeds the stereotype of trans people being highly sexualized deviants. It's like if someone posted this pic

and says they're just calling attention to crime in the black community. :stopitslime:
the cac who posted this probably has thin lips and is hairy like the ape

schillings problem was saying his stance the way he did. never in my life have i seen someone walking around like the person in that pic, and i live in las vegas. seen some wild shyt. equating danny devito in drag with whoever is in that community, and saying children would be unsafe around them and they will just come beating down womens restroom stalls to rape people is ridiculous, and he was rightfully fired months too late. theres no issue with simply saying you think people with penises should use the restroom designated for penises. would schilling take issue with a caitlyn jenner pissing next to his 8 year old son if he had one? probably because hes an a$$hole, but isnt that what hes crusading for is for that person to use the mens restroom, when all this time id imagine they used the womens restroom since ive never seen a transsexual in the mens restroom? its a weird issue, really. deserves discussion just without the schilling fear mongering extremes. wheres the line drawn. can i just put a wig on and walk into the unlv womens locker room because i identify as a woman?

It means your employer reserves the right to fire you for basically whatever they want regardless of your freedom to say whatever you want.

First of all, people need to realize that constitutional claims only apply to the govt, there has to be some kind of state action involved as a prerequisite before one has a cause of action under the Constitution.The idea that you can make a First Amendment claim, or ANY constitutional claim, against your private employer (absent any kind of state/govt. action) is one rife with misinformation.

Second of all, there is no freedom to say whatever you want. There are certain categories of speech, namely the unprotected ones, which the govt can constitutionally prosecute someone for.

Not trying to be an a$$hole but it seems the people in here chiding others about being misinformed are just as misinformed themselves.
