Anonymous Coward User ID: 72727229 United States 08/04/2016 07:29 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | And while we're at it, the American flag is racist too. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 72530568 So is the WHITE House, the Constitution, the Bill of Rights, the American anthem, the pledge of allegiance, Campbells Soup, Apple Pie, Baseball, the NFL, The Moon, the Sun, Water, Air, trees, grass, clouds and gravity. There. Can we be done now? Its never "done" or "over" with the poor little "victims". |

The coiled snake and words from the flag are tattooed in black on my arm she is rubbing right now as I lay on the couch. These dumbfucks are going too far and are enemies of America. I dare them to go farther. |

You'll have to pry both from my cold, dead hands. Jude 1:4 "For there are certain men crept in privily, even they who were of old written of beforehand unto this condemnation, ungodly men, turning the grace of our God into lasciviousness, and denying our only Master and Lord, Jesus Christ." |

Here in Virginia, you can get a yellow "Don't Tread on Me" plate. Will we have to turn those in? Quoting: Lemon Cookies Suck I might have to order a flag online tonight... I bought a top quality confederate flag just as they were being banned. I am going to buy one of these too. I have never flown the confederate flag but will just to piss off the offended. Zark |

He most definitely has some type of complex and is in dire need of counseling. How many people working at this company had a problem with the flag? Just the one? That's gotta tell you something! |
Helios Maximus User ID: 70735592 United States 08/04/2016 08:59 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | No more wearing your Atlanta Braves, Washington Redskins, KC Chiefs, or Cleveland Indians hats or shirts to work. That's racist. Outback Steakhouse T-shirts are also off-limits, as they might offend Hindus & Vegans. Porky Pig shirts are absolutely beyond the pale of bigotry, LOL. Che Guevarra or Karl Marx is still cool though. The will of the people is the only legitimate foundation of any government, and to protect its free expression should be our first object. ~ Thomas Jefferson, Inaugural Address, 1801 It is not only vain, but wicked, in a legislator to frame laws in opposition to the laws of nature, and to arm them with the terrors of death. This is truly creating crimes in order to punish them. ~ Thomas Jefferson, 1779 |

Question EVERYTHING Traveler In The Matrix User ID: 72118423 United States 08/04/2016 09:02 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, among its other functions, decides “hostile work environment” harassment claims brought against federal agencies. In doing so, it applies the same legal rules that courts apply to private employers, and that the EEOC follows in deciding whether to sue private employers. The EEOC has already ruled that coworkers’ wearing Confederate flag T-shirts can be punishable harassment Quoting: Sleeping Giant On January 8, 2014, Complainant filed a formal complaint in which he alleged that the Agency subjected him to discrimination on the basis of race (African American) and in reprisal for prior EEO activity when, starting in the fall of 2013, a coworker (C1) repeatedly wore a cap to work with an insignia of the Gadsden Flag, which depicts a coiled rattlesnake and the phrase “Don’t Tread on Me.” Complainant stated that he found the cap to be racially offensive to African Americans because the flag was designed by Christopher Gadsden, a “slave trader & owner of slaves.” Complainant also alleged that he complained about the cap to management; however, although management assured him C1 would be told not to wear the cap, C1 continued to come to work wearing the offensive cap. Additionally, Complainant alleged that on September 2, 2013, a coworker took a picture of him on the work room floor without his consent. In a decision dated January 29, 2014, the Agency dismissed Complainant’s complaint on the basis it failed to state a claim . . . . Complainant maintains that the Gadsden Flag is a “historical indicator of white resentment against blacks stemming largely from the Tea Party.” [link to www.washingtonpost.com (secure)] Man,this shit is getting old....
