"There is zero tolerance for discriminatory behavior inside the Detroit Fire Department."

And how exactly is bringing a watermelon to work discriminatory?

Wait, let me guess. I am assuming that the new fireman who was fired was not a BLM kinda guy, right?

I never heard of this before. Is there something in the water in Detroit that would cause people to act this way and then fire the guy? That wouldn't have happened down here in the South.

We live in rural Florida and have a good friend who brings us watermelons from his garden in exchange for some citrus off our trees. A good ice cold watermelon is delicious.

BTW, our friend is black. He never seemed offended that he was delivering watermelons to his family and friends.

The US is not racist but liberals fuel the fires by labeling everything and everyone racist because otherwise what would they have to sell to the voters?

Racist, sexist, homophobic, misogyny, xenophobic (I don't even know what that one means), islamaphobic, white supremacy, white privilege, BLM, dog whistles, trigger words, micro-aggressions, safe spaces and on and on and on.

The liberals divide everyone up into classes and then they slice and dice them to pit one group against another to get political power. Name a group, make it a victim and stand back and watch the chaos ensue.

Without the liberals, this kind of crap would not be happening in the US.

Without showing INTENT to discriminate, there can be no “showing” of discriminatory behavior. A mistake maybe and showing some ignorance of such issues, maybe, but intent to discriminate - NO. He should sue.

He went thru all the training, learned how to save lives but they’re firing him because of what, without this crazy heightened ‘sensitivity,’ would be considered a kind gesture. Sue their sorry asses, and let the Chief be fired for stupidity.
