It's actually called "Breach of Contract". Who cares what he thinks or or feels or what they think or anyone else thinks or who views what about whatever. There's a contract for him to do ABC and apparently he couldn't or wouldn't fulfill the contract and who cares why. The courts or Judge Judy will determine and assess damages and/or punitive penalties. That's why we have contract law.. Simple. Next case...

Actually, no. There is no contract if there is no meeting of the minds. They intentionally withheld relevant information about the "delivery", so there was no meeting of the minds and thus no contract. There is a huge difference between delivering a package/pallet/whatever ten miles in a half hour and driving ten miles in a parade in several hours. Even if you ignore the moral dimension of the message they wanted him to convey, from a business perspective he was lied to. I have also walked out on agreements when I found that the other party was misrepresenting the situation, and I am in complete agreement with his response as a business decision. I do not deal with those who lie to me.

The local Fox station had more detail. The company that employed the driver donated use of truck and driver. Apparently they did not inform the driver that he would spend his day driving in a Gay Pride event.

I suspect that somebody in the company wanted to have an excuse to fire the driver, and knew just that would set him off.

Those libs posting at the article, complaining "he violated his contract" would probably sing a different tune if it were a case of a gay driver being told to drive a sound truck for the Westboro Baptist Church, or a feminist being told to drive a pro-life sign truck.
