In reply to the discussion: CeaseFire employee/gang member charged with kidnapping and rape [View all]Bjorn Against
(12,041 posts)5. So do you expect every employer to monitor their employee's activities outside of work?
I don't know what your point is, they fired him. Do you believe all employers should be held liable if their employees do wrong behind their backs?
CeaseFire terminated the employment of this guy as soon as his crimes were revealed. The NRA on the other hand keeps electing and reelecting to their Board of Directors an admitted pants pooping pedophile in Ted Nugent as well as Oliver North who supplied arms to a terrorist group.
Tell me which is worse, a group who has an employee who commits a crime and then fires that employee immediately after the crime was revealed, or a group that keeps reelecting a pedophile and an illegal arms supplier to their Board of Directors long after their crimes were revealed?

I guess I should rephrase that, we don't know if it was immediate but it did happen shortly after

orly? The daily google-dump is nothing more than an effort to highlight the misdeeds of one person

He was fired. Period. He is no longer an employee, your subject line is false.

Fine. I'll happily stipulate that CeaseFire is no worse than the NRA

CeaseFire is run by well-meaning ninnies, NRA's board is downright malevolent

I don't like everyone on the board, but that does not make them criminals.

I just showed you a few he's committed (not that he'll likely be charged with any)

So you now acknowledge there is no evidence of wrongdoing and they do some good work

Well I suppose we now know the real reason for his opposition to armed individuals.
