    Exclamation NRA-ILA: NPR President and VP "Resign" After VP Calls Gun Owners "Seriously Racist"

    So much for free speach. I most recently read that harassment in the workplace is only harassment if the person who was the recipient feels it is harassment. So, for example, if someone calls me a dick, and I don't get offended, then it's Ok. I guess they are just covering their butts. Sucks losing your job for speaking your mind though. But it did happen yesterday to the tool who sat next to me in a meeting with the prez, VP, regional VP, Dm's, etc. He dropped the F bomb about 6 times, didn't go over too well, he was gone by 2.

    Cursing isn't 'speaking your mind', but instead is a blatant show of one's ignorance or at least incapacity to refrain from the profane in polite company.

    I swear frequently myself, though I'd never be so foolish as to let it happen during a meeting the like because its highly unprofessional.
    If there's no such thing as trolls, how do you explain all the dead unicorns?
