My opinion struck a note with you, therefore it must have been credible even with you. I do not understand how you would characterize me a "tough guy or one who pretends to be, nor am I particularly worked up. As I said, it's all part of the passing parade, and I do enjoy the parade. I care deeply for my fellow citizens, but I do not support or condone workplace demonstrations, counter to the good order, discipline, and image of the workplace. You seem to have a greater attitude of permissiveness, that I do associate with a liberal viewpoint. Feel free to petition the Governor, go out and hold a demonstration, or open a go-fund-me site to support those you feel abused, by negative workplace actions, taken to discourage workplace demonstrations. It is your right. I simply will not support your effort. Over permissiveness is a hall mark of liberal thinking, but does not (in fact) demonstrate greater concern for your fellow citizens. If you raise your kids with this highly permissive attitude, they too may be occasionally ostracized by society on a temporary basis or for much longer periods of time. It is your decision. Knock yourself out. I'll watch the parade.
