Court Upholds Christian Views of Former Fire Chief
In a telling victory, a judge in U.S. District Court in Atlanta ruled that former Atlanta Fire Chief Kelvin Cochran can proceed in his lawsuit against the city after it fired him for publishing a book that criticized homosexuality and gay marriage.
The city tried to get the case dismissed. “The city was looking to say there’s no validity to this case — we were just in firing him, and the court doesn’t even have to let the case go forward — and the court rightly rejected that and said no, there’s enough evidence here to move forward,” said David Cortman, the senior counsel for Alliance Defending Freedom, which is representing Cochran.
The former chief, who once held a position in the Obama administration, wrote a book explaining his faith and Christianity titled “Who Told You That You Were Naked?” In one section, Cochran asserted that homosexuality is a sexual perversion.
An openly homosexual member of the Atlanta City Council took issue with Cochran and complained. First, Cochran was suspended without pay. Then, on Jan. 6, he was fired and so Cochran responded with a wrongful termination suit.
After all, expressing your beliefs while holding a government job is not worthy of punishment, and no matter what the leftists may say Cochran should not be made to bake the cake or made to care.

There are extremely tight limits on what you can safely say about queers; Free speech be damned.

How did homosexual perversion become a protected class and the love of politically correct Liberals ?
This suit is one of many actions that are going to push back the ridiculously oversized protections queers built for themselves.
Freedom of the Press and Free Speech trumps P.C. nonsense
More sacking of conservatives, especially of male ones, in leftist workplaces goes on than most people know about or can imagine the extent of. And much more often than blatant sackings are male conservatives being pressed out of leftist dominated workplaces by treacherous leftist colleagues and superiors who use a wide repertoire of unprovable subtle passive aggressive undermining tactics, not just to make male conservatives leave but also to prevent them working in the same field again. In leftist dominated fields gossip has been formalised as a filter system to remove and exclude male conservatives. They give mean phone references, they "liaise" with other leftists ie gossip over the phone, at lunch and elsewhere, they go to "networking" meetings to spread formalised gossip, they gossip and spread rumours any way they. And they often just imply things about others, or exaggerate them, or use the words "inappropriate" and "unsuitable" to be a teacher/psychologist... etc, which words are used to imply some horrible quality or tendency about the man and let the listener imagine what it might be. If pressed, they either blatantly lie or are knowingly vague and use inflections and expressions to impart a lie without saying it outright. The reader can probably rightly suspect some of the accusations they like to imply most often. By definition leftists are treacherous people, and she-leftists (feminists) are the most treacherous of all. I get around a lot, have worked in dozens of leftist fields and dozens of conservative fields. I know the differences between them very well.

Better the bigots be allowed to express themselves (non-violently) so all know what and how they really think, including these religious types like this so-called Christian, or Muslims who might otherwise pretend to be what they are not, and hide under the radar before their extremism literally explodes in bombs or bullets.
I get it. Everyone is a bigot, except you.
Make the male city council wanks wear pink tutu's just to humiliate them
