2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious right or left wing sources will be removed at the mods discretion.

See I'd care more if she was fired by GE or Target or something, but.... What did she expect? This is basically like announcing you're getting married to a black woman at the Klan rally, and then wondering why they're tying your neck to a tree.
I mean I don't wanna play "Blame the victim", but, come the fuck on...
You can't say you don't want to do something then proceed to do it. I mean, you can but obviously if you didn't want to play the card you could have chosen not to play it.
That's coming from someone that commits the same sin at times but I'm trying hard to curb that.
If you're going to say you don't want to do something just don't do it.
Also, our civil liberties should be protected everywhere, the institution is in the wrong here. Just because someone has a particular gender identity should not matter.
You can both feel sorry for somebody who got mugged and note that taking a shortcut through that dark alley with a wallet full of cash was a bad idea with a foreseeable outcome
Civil liberties don't vanish because a place delcares itself Christian...
I realize that, but... still
Tell that to the Christians
Gladly. Freedom of religion goes both ways. They are free to practice their religion for the same reason they are not allowed to punish people for not following it.
Christians have a great history of not forcing their faith on people, right? It isn’t a core tenant of Abrahamic faiths or anything.
