Here in America you can say most anything you want, including some pretty darn hateful, bigoted trash. We protect the right of free speech.
I have no doubt that seacoaster would agree.
But you lose your job if you don't represent the values and code of conduct of your employer. These posts are way outside the bounds of the code of conduct of their organization. Fire them. Period.
They can say anything they want but they no longer get a badge or a paycheck from the American taxpayers. Find another employer.

Americans were calling for FBI agents to get fired for having a political opinion, if you'll recall. They were.

Agreed. and they were knuckleheads for saying what they did. You can not control people. One can put AOC in this same knucklehead box with her spreading anti-Semitism, hatred and stupidity,.

Re: Orange Duce
O you can’t equate AOC and those Border Patrol age ts in any way.
You can control behavior to a great degree in aggregate. People respond to incentives either positive or negative. They will also follow the example of their leaders.
That are far worse than knuckleheads.
Militarizing our national holiday because you got a woody in France and because you want to have a large captive crowd for video and photo ops to use in your campaign is just another way Trump undermines our customs and traditions. His entire presidency has been spent undermining the necessary the value propositions me essaey to sustain a democracy. It is not as significant as others but it is symbolic

Re: Orange Duce
AOC's use of the term "concentration camps" was not intended to suggest an equivalence to Nazi death camps. she's been quite clear that was not her intent. Did you actually read the full article? She certainly was not saying something anti-Semitic, nor, for that matter, bigoted in any sense.youthathletics wrote: ↑Tue Jul 02, 2019 9:33 pmAgreed. and they were knuckleheads for saying what they did.

As I shared, what we did last Sunday at the outdoor pops concert was quite appropriate, certainly public.
We do this frequently. A few years ago our family went to the Mall for the 4th; very similar moment recognizing the service people in the crowd. They also recognized first responders. All very appropriate and warmly received by the crowd.
Bragging about our military technology is not honoring our "Warriors".

Do you think these officers are stressed? Do you think they are so "locked in" emotionally and and wound up so tight because of the chaos they deal with day in and day out....while you get to chill at a pops concert. Sure, what they said in a private chat was uncalled for, but in your essentially stress free life as compared to these officers, you show no empathy or even a morsel of understanding.

For sure and won't get better until the Congressional Clowns decided to put country over party. Both sides!!
Re: Orange Duce
Trump got his money - the Senate bill he wanted. The "congressional clowns" have done their part. Anyone want to bet Trump spends the money so the situation gets better throughout the detainment chain?? He cleans up the problems in his detainment centers?? I know how Pelosi is betting - she didn't challenge the Senate bill in the end. It's not going to get better as long as the guy running the camps is using them to punish brown people for claiming asylum.foreverlax wrote: ↑Wed Jul 03, 2019 10:31 amFor sure and won't get better until the Congressional Clowns decided to put country over party.

If by "both sides" you're referring to the Democrats reluctance to pursue impeachment proceedings against this President, then I stand corrected.
