I am sick and tired of this vocal minority of terrorists along with the Gay Mafia going after Conservatives and Christians based on their believes, time to start fighting back.

The war against the right to peaceful assembly continues under the gay euphemism of gay love and marriage.

And it continues. The vicious fascists are determined to persecute and crush the normal people. There is no freedom of speech in the USA.

I’m glad I pulled my SunTrust accounts last year—if I needed a reason to keep from going back, this would be it.

So much of this comes from the "Human Resources" departments in companies. HR departments claim to drive corporate culture and values, but they are so disconnected from the real drivers of the business.

And I spent most of my career in HR, but in the Compensation side of the business, connecting pay and performance.

“Crystal Night” starts. WE get on board and scream about this - back them up - or it will spread.

The Clueless who think the gays just want ‘equal rights’ are in for a hard lesson.

Time for retaliation against SunTrust.

They operate in the South?

Evangelicals and conservatives abound.

Let it ring out from the pulpit and the street corners...SunTrust is in pocket of the pedophiles, the perverts, the people who want to tear apart the society that SunTrust depends on for their middle class values.

Maybe they could re-locate to the Castro, see how far that gets them.

I’ve been in HR also. You stated your job was “connecting pay and performance”, which s/b business main concern. HR has devolved into a day care center for employees.

I happen to know someone who is very high up in SunTrust HR. The company is quite conservative, so I do not believe this decision was born internally. They probably received outside pressure.

So, is SunBank in business to handle money for profit, or to police political views?

Are they willing to lose money they could have made because they disagree with a customer?

What happened to defending everyone’s right to have their own opinion? Does it make their money somehow worth less to the bank?

They took the “person” out of Personnel and renamed it “HR.”

I realize that Suntrust can do what they like with their business.

But that does not change the fact that their craven corporate behavior is abetting this steady erosion of our liberties and that will eventually effect their business far more dramatically negatively than they can imagine.

Time to start fighting back....

Mr K has an excellent starting point with these questions...

This is almost reaching the level of an old style Soviet Progrom, or “purge”.
