The protester who burned pages from the Koran outside a planned mosque near Ground Zero has been fired from NJTransit, sources and authorities said Tuesday.
Derek Fenton's 11-year career at the agency came to an abrupt halt Monday after photographs of him ripping pages from the Muslim holy book and setting them ablaze appeared in newspapers.

Exactly what is the connection between his job and the political demonstration?
I guess they fired any gays that invaded churches and spread condoms during mass?

Well, it seems he’s a fire-starter! What if he decides set a fire in the cab of his locomotive?/sarcasm.repeat, sarcasm:)
To: Williams
The rule is : anything you say or do that liberals approve of is ok. So gay activists interrupting church and throwing condoms around is ok.
On the other hand, the liberals support the rights of Muslims and are agahst at a demonstration aimed at the Koran or Islam. They would not be agahst at such a demonstration aimed at the Bible or Christianity.
So sad to say, the rule is, the liberals are okay with desecration as long as the desecration is aimed at religions the liberals have disdain for. But otherwise legal demonstrations aimed at a favored religion or cause of liberals will get someone fired/blacklisted/shunned.

It was unethical? How was it unethical? I doubt they could point to a section of their code that he violated.

They put us all in danger by pretending Islam is a religion of peace; I don’t think they really care. I’d hate to have kids in the same school as his...

If that’s a goverment job as I suspect, this guy has a good constitutional case.

I think Mr. Fenton is going to be a rich man very soon, well at least his lawyer, when he sues the pants off NJ Transit, since I can see no grounds for firing him...while I think burning the pedo prophets book is unnecessary, it should be covered under 1st amendment rights shouldn't it?
