A Wal-Mart greeter in Chattanooga was assaulted by an off-duty Chattanooga Police Officer and had to be hospitalized. The police department initially only suspended the the officer, but the howl from the public was a bit too much and they initially fired him for what they called other unrelated matters.
The greeter is suing the officer and the department and it was mentioned int he news that Wal-mart was upset the greeter had filed a civil suit and was reviewing the incident.
Which I feel is code speak for they are looking to fire him.
Sounds like working for Wal-mart is very hazardous, in more ways than one.
As the war effort winds down and security contracts expire there may be a number of Gurkhas looking for work.

I am glad the greeter filed the suit. The officer shouldn’t have acted the way he did. The officer deserved to get fired. I hope the greeter wins the suit.
