Let's just sidestep this for an issue so we can get to some truth over here: JUST IN CASE I'M WRONG: If you are fired because of your religion, is that illegal? Are there any exceptions to who is covered by Title VII’s religion provisions? Yes. While Title VII’s jurisdictional rules apply to all religious discrimination claims under the statute, see EEOC Compliance Manual, “Threshold Issues,” https://www.eeoc.gov/policy/docs/threshold.html, specially-defined “religious organizations” and “religious educational institutions” are exempt from certain religious discrimination provisions, and a “ministerial exception” bars Title VII claims by employees who serve in clergy roles. Also, I'm not sure if Idaho is the same, but Utah at least is an at-will employment state. So they can basically fire you for whatever the hell they want.

green dragon 07/19/17 8:46:19 PM #29:	Here's something that I've always been a little bit shaky on. And please excuse me for my ignorance. Let's say a person works for the government. They say something or post something, while at home and on their free time, that their employer, the government, does not approve of (let's say it's not offensive and harms no one else). The government then fires that employee. Can that happen? I wanna say no, but this post: Zeus posted... However, even at a government-run university, you can still be fired for saying stuff Kinda confuse me. I mean, I have heard of profs getting fired for saying dumb shit, but is it because the government doesn't actually run the university and only provides funding that covers only a small chunk of what it takes to run a university? Or is it because a university can fire whoever they want to to protect their image? <cite>green dragon posted [p:883234779] in Free Speec...

Zeus 07/19/17 9:24:14 PM #42:	green dragon posted... Here's something that I've always been a little bit shaky on. And please excuse me for my ignorance. Let's say a person works for the government. They say something or post something, while at home and on their free time, that their employer, the government, does not approve of (let's say it's not offensive and harms no one else). The government then fires that employee. Can that happen? I wanna say no, but this post: It depends on what's said and how it's said but, generally speaking, even the government has the ability to fire people for making comments that violate agreed-upon conduct policies. Granted, it may actually be illegal in cases because a lot of government workers don't really understand the law. For instance, when I was younger I applied for a job at the library and they wanted to give me 3 hour shits which is illegal under CT state law (the minimum is 4). Naturally, when I pointed out it was illegal, I didn't get the job. green dragon posted... Zeus posted... However, even at a government-run university, you can still be fired for saying stuff Kinda confuse me. I mean, I have heard of profs getting fired for saying dumb shit, but is it because the government doesn't actually run the university and only provides funding that covers only a small chunk of what it takes to run a university? Or is it because a university can fire whoever they want to to protect their image? The government technically does run some universities. As for "is it legal?" that's more a question for the courts. Universities have policies that staff and students sign, but they're not always constitutional. And, in general, certain categories of speech enjoy greater protections than others. Cacciato posted...
