A Hillsborough County, Florida, employee is distressed that the county is temporarily displaying a rainbow flag in front of its administrative offices; it creates, she says, a “hostile work environment.”
But just a day after it was raised, Commissioner Stacy White said it may be offending Christian employees and questioned whether it should be taken down.
In an email sent to the the county human relations director Peggy Rowe on Thursday, White said he received an anonymous complaint from a county employee that the presence of the flag was “nearly unbearable” for her to pass on her way to work and created a “hostile work environment.”
I know: You want to gag. You marvel: How is it possible for somebody to be so small, so mean-spirited, so self-absorbed, so … vicious.
Beats me. I do know this: Every nasty little display like this undermines just a bit more the Godly’s claim that they’re morally superior to ‘the world,’ and hastens the end of their influence in our shared public life.
So I say … let ‘er rip. Keep it up — Please.
