I decided to contact an attorney locally. I was actually surprised to hear that I did NOT have my civil rights violated. Because I live in a Right to Work state, employers have a lot of latitude with their employees. From what I could gather, the person whom took offense to my book (according to my understanding from this law office) was closer to having HER civil rights violated than I did. So my OPINION violated her civil rights. Her keeping me from WORKING in the ER over my OPINION did not violate my civil rights at all.
The logical question would be... and WHY is that???
Answer proposed.... because I am NOT presumed to be a minority!
WHAT THE ***k IS THIS?
WHY I AM LESS ENTITLED THAN HER?
WHY AM I NOT ALLOWED HAVE A VOICE?
WHY AM I NOT ALLOWED TO HAVE OPINIONS?
ONCE AGAIN, ISN'T THIS A PROBLEM?
So let me get this straight...
Me and my family (documented on both sides and federally recognized) have been in this country since 1500's have fewer rights than someone who crosses the border illegally yesterday.
If you think I am in tough shape... what about you European decents who have only been here 100 years or less?
Look out! You won't have a job either!
I want to SCREAM!
What can we do about this?
We need to figure out how to protect our interest.
We need to draw attention to how out of balance this situation is.
Has something like this happened to anyone else? or as agrivating?
Pass this site on to everyone you know... perhaps someone has some suggestions.
Comments and suggestions needed and welcome!
