Man Fired For Admitting To Being A Gun Owner
« on: October 09, 2014, 05:51:41 PM »
This guy was fired not for carrying his weapon at work but for simply admitting he owned a gun to a co-worker.  An interesting read:

I wonder if it would be ok to fire someone if you found out they were against the 2nd. Amendment and didn't own a gun? (Zero tolerance on non gun owners)

Hope he gets a gazillion bucks.  Then he can start his own biz.

Wonder how it'd go if you fired someone for betting on the horse races.

Hoplophobia leads to brain-dead "zero tolerance" policies which are in opposition to Indiana state laws and the 1st and 2nd Amendment.    Their ox is going to get severely gored.

Wasn't there a similar situation about a year or so ago, somewhere?
