I challenge you to come to my neighborhood in Doyline, La and find one single company within a 50 mile radius that will, or has, openly fired someone for being gay.
Because they can, doesn't mean they will...but that doesn't excuse the fact they could if they chose to.
Then why were we facing a major lawsuit if we fired a gay guy that was HIV positive? That doesn't really speak volumes in the "you can be fired for simply being gay" issue you're talking about.
You can face legal repercussion for firing someone for being HIV positive because it is considered a disability. Disability is a protected class.
Firing a gay man without HIV or an HIV man whose employer did not know he had HIV and he can't do anything in a lot of states

You do understand criminal law is not the same as civil law, right?
So you can or canNOT be fired for being gay? Because I'm trying to understand whether you're talking about a business getting away with firing a gay person or not...

How does a law make it any easier to correctly claim that person was fired because he was gay?

More tolerable but still disgusting. I think I'd be more pissed off if I caught my girlfriend suction cupping with another girl than I would if I caught her getting rooted out by a dude.
I don't find two girls going to town on each other sexy at all.

I think some of the most annoying people in society are those dudes that get turned on by two chicks "going at it."
You just want to smack them and say:
"dude, they aren't into dudes. What are you cheering about? You aren't getting any from them.'

That guy got fired after three write-ups for looking at porn (while on the clock), one write-up for making threats, and two write-ups for being over an hour late. Three write-ups is enough to get you fired, one write-up for looking at porn, especially while on the clock, is enough for immediate termination. He was also told multiple times to change the background on his work computer because it was always a naked guy. If that wasn't enough, we were later served a letter that said he was suing us for $100,000.00 for discrimination but would settle out of court for $10,000.00. Turns out, he'd done this to several companies, all of which settled out of court. We just made copies of all of his write-ups (which he'd signed each time) and sent them to his lawyer and asked if he still wanted to take this to court because we aren't settling outside of it for $10K.

Makes me think he's young. Most young guys flail and flop over two girls scissoring, or even kissing. Hell, when I was 21, I tried to get my GF to make out with my buddy's GF and they said sure, we'll do whatever you two do. I had a chub starting at the word "sure," and my damn wiener dropped down and went into immediate hiding as soon as they said the last word. All bets were off at that point. Eventually I grew up and realized that two girls didn't turn me on at all, in fact, it disgusted me.

I'm guessing the KKK had the desire to be another race lurking in their suppressed consciousness, and the BP's had the desire to be white lurking in theirs... Hell, why even have politics, half of us must have have liberalism lurknig, and half have Conservatism lurking in a suppressed conscious.
Either everybody is desiring to be somebody else, or people actually disagree with 1.6% of America. You figure it out.
Good to know you finally equate the blatant homophobia on this board to something as awful as racism.
