California Continues To Dig Its Own Grave. Companies Must Now Hire Transexuals

[Corey2007]

That is nazty...I cant believe that

 

[Crazy Ivan]

Now, that is fuckked!

I'm not entirely sure I see where it says that they have to hire transexuals.

It says that they can't discriminate against them.

Doesn't mean that every corner store and gas station needs to rush out and fill their ranks with drag queens and post op queens.

I can't possibly fathom how the hell this thing matters one way or the other to the general public.

 

[Robert Jan]

you mean that before, it was allowed to discriminate against transsexuals?

thats the weird part imo

You people are such tools of the elite.

This does not dicate private business. It says that you cannot say "I am not hiring you because you are a trabsexual." Nothing else is intended. You can hire and fire anyone you want in a private compnay.

yes it does legislate private business.

if an employer doesnt want some guy wearing fake tits, bad makeup, a dress, and using the women's bathroom, he has every god damn right not to hire him for those reasons.

if you dont thinka large percentage of 'transexuals' are going to start suing businesses because they didnt get the job, you are only kidding yourself.

You are mistaken. The US Constitution dicates that all people are created equal. This law is nothing new. It will not make any difference in hiring practices. People (mainly blacks and women) have been denied jobs for decades even with laws like this on the books so stop making a mountain out of a mole hill.

they'll find ways round this, just like they do in other cases of dscrimination

though, yes, i see poinks point and agree with it.....a line does need to be drawn especally if a business person feels something is innapporpriate

yes, all people are equal under the *law*. people are not equal in every sense of the word.

plus, your example of women and blacks being denied jobs doesnt fit into this equation, because women and blacks were more than willing to conform to the rules set by their employer and not ask for special exemptions, like transexuals will.

what about the businesses that are owned by religious people who see transexualism being incompatible with their beliefs? should they be forced by the state to do it anyways, even if it is in direct conflict with their religion? what about the women who do not want to share the bathroom with men? should they be told by the state to fuck off?

i dont think so.

I am not 100% familiar with the law. With that being said, if you are correct and all private businesses are bound by these laws, then this is going too far. But as most laws, they are a compramise and will not affect anyone but government affiliated businesses.

Plus, as long as you do not use the words, "I am not hiring you because you are a transexual," you will be fine.
