    Default Show your Racism in Public = Get Your Ass Fired

    You can pretty much see why the rightwing posters who have an affinity for writing about "n*ggers", cunts, and wetbacks can only muster the courage to do so from the safety of an anonymous keyboard.

    Demonstrate Your Racism in Public = Get Your Ass Fired

    A part-time Texas firefighter has lost multiple jobs as a civil servant after proposing setting up feeders at the border and allowing hunters to shoot and kill desperate immigrants.

    According to ABC7, Westfield Fire Department firefighter Chris Bush wrote on Facebook: “We should buy deer feeders fill them with pinto beans put them on the border and make a new hunting season. I wonder how many Texans will buy that hunting licenses and how many tags we would be allowed…”

    After the post went viral, his employers got wind of it and took immediate action by firing him.

    According to Bush’s Facebook page, he was employed by the Westfield Fire Department, Bellaire Fire department and Harris County EMS.

    The report states Bush lost his job at all three places of his employment.

    Yes, the Orange Hog is making buck-toothed deplorables feel like they have license to indulge their inner racist, and undoubtedly there are some employers who will still tolerate overt racists: aka, Moonshine distillers, the NRA, and the Republican National Committee.

    Being a blatant racist in public reflects on the employer. You having a racist on staff implies you approve of him. Owners have trouble defending him being there if he is so bad. Of course, other employees would find out what kind of person they are working with and there might be conflict among workers.

    The vast majority of american workers will stare at their shoes and never ever challenge their employer in any way over anything.

    Yes, and this is why the posters here who giggle about putting land mines on the border, putting booby traps on the border, and doing target practice on "invaders from the south" are generally wise enough to not say shit like that at work. At worst, they risk being fired, and at a minimum they will be socially shunned by co-workers and considered too creepy to even hang out with.

    Our nasty-mouthed racists here are cowards hiding behind their anonymity.. They risk NOTHING.

    Outward blatant racism is awful but it's also easy to see and deal with. My friend is black and a tech entrepreneur who started hip hop.com, which he calls CNN for black folks.

    He posted this on Facebook today:

    ""I met many young African American tech geniuses at AfroTech this week that made me so proud. But to hear how tough it is working for many tech companies as an African American with the amount of biases and racism that exist was very saddening. Solution: Build our own companies and support our own!""


    We know tech companies aren't populated by uneducated rednecks from the South. Most workers are progressive and (well) educated. So how does all this racism still exist? How should it be rooted out if that is even possible?

    He’s an EMT, this diminishes faith in his doing his job. He may hold aid to some people he feel aren’t worthy. It’s a good call.

    The really creepy part about those who believe violence is a solution to illegal immigration on our Southern border is that the farther from the border they live the more likely they are to advocate violence.
