Quote:I guess you're right if you want to call black people, Muslims, handicapped people and the elderly
a special class as they are all specifically covered under the the existing blanket term. I worked in the HR nerve center of one of the larger employers in town and have been in the industry over a decade. All you need to fire anyone is documented proof of poor performance
. Oftentimes not even that as Florida is a right to work state and employees sign a document stating their awareness of this when they are onboarded.


Did black people want special rights during the Civil Rights Movement? No. They just wanted the same rights that the Constitutional Amendments said they deserved. So when they fought.. they won. And that is why slowly, but without question, LGBT Americans are seeing their fight for equality being won one city or state at a time. If the original law (14th Amendment) was not being followed, so a better one was needed to replace it.

Let me try one more time though I doubt it will work.  

 

1.  The 14th Amendment covers all Americans.  Once you pass laws specifically singling out  black people, Muslims, handicapped people and the elderly or any other minority, you have created a special class.  Again why pass extra laws as opposed to enforcing the ones already on the books?

 

2.  As for this gem, All you need to fire anyone is documented proof of poor performance  You are being completely disingenuous if you claim the documentation required for letting go a minority is equal to that of letting go a caucasian employee.
