Trump Supporters Gathering in D.C. - Mayor Readies for Those ‘Seeking Confrontation’

Seems the left is going to extremes with this one. Outing anyone and everyone at the capitol or at the rally in attendance. I agree with those that were inside the capitol during the mayhem or were photographed damaging property, but for those who may have been there only in attendance for freedom of assembly? #$%@

Remember this when SHTF liberals. You wanted it.

Only if they’re white.

In fairness they are the ones with jobs

 

[NorthDallas40]

Why would their jobs be protected? Shouldn't companies have control over who they employ?

Sure. And shouldn’t employees have the freedom to exercise their constitutional rights without fear of retribution? At will is a two way street and there are legal limitations.

 

[NorthDallas40]

I've got to disagree unless it's a government employee.

Government employees and contractors have fewer protections that private companies with regards to exercising these rights. I can assure you of that from the NDAs I am routinely required to sign as well as SF86 form information

 

[utvolpj]

Sure. And shouldn’t employees have the freedom to exercise their constitutional rights without fear of retribution? At will is a two way street and there are legal limitations.

They still do, as defined in the Constitution. There is no protection promised from anything except govt.

Maybe you're worried about federal workers?

 

[NorthDallas40]

People get fired everyday for racist rants on social media. All of those rants are perfectly legal exercises of their rights. They still get canned.

Now extrapolate that out to peaceable assembly with no racist rant involved. You know the difference... right?

 

[NorthDallas40]

Nope. Federal workers get their protections via their unions. Go look up at will employment. Peaceably assembling in the Capitol is not a firing offense. If anybody forcibly broke into a building then that’s a different case and they will be charged and sure fire them.

I don’t see 37mm AA gun mounts in the beds of those peaceably assembling.

Anything should be a fireable offense. At will employment allows there to be no reasoning given they aren't already protected.

You’re wrong. There are limitations on at will. If a company is stupid enough to give the reason for firing as “you were at DC during the Capitol breach so you’re fired” while there is no evidence of the employee committing an illegal act the company deserves to get sued. If instead they’ve got the info and state “sorry your position has been eliminated and we don’t have a suitable position here is your two week severance” they will get away with it.

It’s not that hard.

Nothing like encouraging the population to inform on their neighbors.

I seem to recall a historical reference there somewhere.

I was listening to a podcast and they were talking about the Stasi files that were released after the the fall of East Germany. The people who were ratting on each other were married couples and family. I cant imagine the awkwardness during a family meal.

Then they don't give a reason. That person can just go man the next drive thru

Where did I disagree? Didn’t I even provide an example for how they can fire the employee?

I said "no reasoningb given" and you said I was wrong. Odd way to agree

 

[NorthDallas40]

I already provided a similar example in the previous post. You’re trying too hard. Run along now

I miss him every day. It has been about ten years since he died. First time I've been back around his old stomping grounds, and it kind of hit me again I guess.

I just found out that a childhood neighbor and friend died of Covid after being put on a respirator a couple of weeks ago. He lived about 5 or 6 houses from me , and all of us the neighborhood kids used to play football in his big front yard while we were growing up. We were on the same Little League team, and he and his brother survived Vietnam as Marines, but both are now gone. He was a good man.

And now twitter gets to turn their own lights out.

Hopefully

Who would mind being outed it they were in attendance? Were they trying to keep it a secret? Are they embarrassed?

It is a kinda obscure pic of him. Clapton, SRV and Hendrix are my personal top 3 guitarist.

Clapton was/is timeless and technical. Only person to get into the rock and roll 3 times.

Vaughan was once in a lifetime and played with more passion than anyone I’ve ever watched.

Hendrix changed music and was more experimental than anyone in his time.

But that’s like my personal opinion man lol

David Gilmour.


That is all.

 

[SpaceCoastVol]

I know the left thinks this is funny (Trump being removed), but it’s a scary precedent and only furthering division.

They don't care until they lose the house and hopefully the Senate in 22

 

[SpaceCoastVol]

I'm not a Democrat. I'm not registered with any party. I consider myself a liberal. As far as guns go, I don't think you need heavy ordinance like a tank or grenade launcher. But otherwise, jump through the hoops and go for it.

"need" who are you or anybody else for that matter to decide what I "need"?

Laws very state to state. Based on what I could find, your state would have to pass a specific law about it. This article mentions California and Oregon as examples.
What Employee Speech Is Protected in the Workplace?

 

[SpaceCoastVol]

I said not to take it as an insult, that wasn't how I meant it.

"Gun nut" is not a term of endearment in any shape or form. You didn't "need" to use it.
