Nurse removed from hospital after saying white boys should be sacrificed to the wolves

117. No, but it might teach them to separate their social media from professional life.

Maybe because I am a liberal in a red state that certainly is a "right to fire" state, I knew when our bosses wanted us to create FB accounts for "networking" that I had better be very careful, no matter what privacy filters I thought I set.

Because I was one of 40+ people fired in the same day because someone at a restaurant heard the boss of our agency badmouth someone who worked for the client. If restaurant gossip I didn't even start could cost me my job in that environment, I certainly wasn't going to talk about my rare-for-here opinions on politics or religion where they could see!

As I said in another post, I would be a lot more worried about potential for danger if she was, say, an OB nurse. I don't think any of the adult white males saying they would be afraid of the care she gave are in any danger of being thrown to wolves, though they might have more justified fears based on her statements about how she'd treat their moms -- but probably only if they'd been one of the jackasses who asked her for an unnecessary spongebath one too many times that week.

But sadly... the firing is justified because it made the hospital look bad, though the firing may also make them look bad.

We support businesses who fire people who make transpbobic, homophobic, and other racist statements that make the company look bad. I do think, especially since she qualified her statement with "Historically", they're overreacting majorly. But if we try to say "free speech can't cost you your job if your employer doesn't want to be associated with that free speech"...

Sadly I wish I trusted the court of public opinion to see those differences, like "historically", and talking to women raising sons like so many white people choose to talk to black women.
