In reply to the discussion: Any ideas for ways to respond to the CEOs who fire workers as petty revenge for an Obama victory? [View all]iemitsu
(3,891 posts)I thought I detected, somewhere between the lines, that the employees were black.
The news said all black people voted for Obama because they are racist (Colin Powell as proof) so black employees must have voted that way.
It seems, that these employees need to be taught that voting for their own interests is actually voting against their interests.
It may be a symptom of the republican world view's death throes, for Papa John to respond this way to the election results, but it is ugly behavior, designed to terrorize the employees and their families.
The spirit of the old KKK lives in the person of the Papa John's CEO.
In the above scenario, I would have the workers push the tied boss and his chair off the roof of the building, not just to the dumpster and the background music would be terrifying, Mau Mau, jungle music from an old Hollywood, exploit Africa adventure film (reminiscent of the scene from Birth of a Nation where the new Congress eats chicken in the Senate Chambers).
