"People get fired for things they can't do anything about all the time."
You deliberately took that out of context. Yes people get fired for no reason at all. That's fine. But they should not be fired because of their skin color or their gender. The fact that I have to explain this to you makes me wonder why you're so resistant to the idea. Oh yeah, because of your definition of freedom. It's not mine.
I googled the story and another article states the bumper sticker read "Marriage = man + woman" if anyone is curious.
This is from the other article.
This employee works in an office environment where co-workers are permitted to have personal, religious, and even political messages in their cubicles. He decided to take a stand for traditional values by posting a bumper sticker in his cubicle that stated, "Marriage = man + woman." His supervisor ordered him to remove the sticker because it was deemed "offensive." Even though he graciously complied, he was reprimanded and demoted.
