I think HP is retarded for the pro-diversity campaign which is pretty much in the face of Christians and other right-minded people. We see it more and more, and it's offensive.

The only distinction I'm drawing is that employers must have the right to make stupid decisions in a capitalistic society. And a free society. If employer and employee don't get along, fire 'em. History will judge whether the employer made the right decision or not.

I agree with you here. I won't be buying any more HP and I'll be selling my stock in HP but you're absolutely right here. Rheinharts reasoning is wrong but the holding is right.

I wouldn't mind private businesses (or publicly owned, isn't that what HP is - stocks and share holders and all that?) being homosexual agenda pushers on their own. I mean, I wouldn't like it, but it's their business. What I strenuously object to is the forcible legislating of same - through laws or judges' decisions.

That's what a lot of this is based on. Legal crap. There is no reason in the world by some peoples' strange sexual desires or acts should be a matter of legislation. In the sense of legislation protecting or promoting the same. Especially when such acts have been shown to be unnatural, unhealthy, and justly frowned upon since time immemorial.
