Jeffrey Little, who is accusing L.A. County of religious discrimination, said the county told him he would not personally have to fly the flag.
This asshole is never satisfied. They have made compromise after compromise. Just fire the fucker. It isn't religious discrimination at this point. Reasonable accommodations have been made. More than reasonable.
Honestly, I'd be worried about what this guy would not be willing to do with a male drowning victim.
What a pansy, whatever happened to love thy neighbor?
You’re thinking of Jesus.
These are Christians. They’re the exact opposite.
Oh Jesus Christ, how could I forget?
Well the great bit about that is it very explicitly doesn't say to love everyone.
A Pharisee (politically powerful religious faction) lawyer decides to test Jesus by asking what the most important commandment is. Jesus answers by stating two commandments: Love God wholeheartedly, and love your neighbor as much as you love yourself. All the other rules are based on these two.
The lawyer asks for clarification: "Who is my neighbor?" (He can't mean everyone, right!? Some of them are, you know...)
Jesus responds by telling the Parable of the Good Samaritan: A story about a Jewish man, much like the lawyer, who is violently mugged and left to die in the street. A priest and a Levite (member of the tribe in charge of the temple), both highly respected leaders in Jewish society, pass by while pretending not to notice. The only person who stops to help is a Samaritan, a member of a hated ethnic and religious minority that had recently defiled the Jewish temple in an act of terrorism. (The Samaritans' own temple had been destroyed a century earlier and the date of its destruction made into an annual holiday, they were hated so much.)
"Which of the three men was a neighbor to the one who was robbed?"
"The one who showed mercy to him," the lawyer admits, unwilling to utter the name of his mutual enemy.
"Go and do likewise."
It says to love everyone, especially the ones society hates.
He makes $210,000 per year..?? I'm not saying important and dangerous jobs like this shouldn't be well compensated, I'm just very surprised that it IS this well compensated
It's an issue here in Los Angeles...
Highest-paid LA County lifeguards made up to $500,000 in 2021: Report
Little has been a county lifeguard for more than 22 years and made $210,000 last year.
Fucking excuse me? Why the fuck is a lifeguard making that much???
Yo what the fuck, I mean all jobs deserve a living wage, but is he guarding golden goose eggs?
I wish my wife was making that much as a lifeguard. Most places around me pay less than $10 per hour.
The Christian God made gay people gay. Jesus.
