[QUOTE="Superteeth2478, post: 4616861, member: 73024"] For what it's worth, it's my understanding that Robinson IS a black man. Doesn't make what he did okay, but the Administrative Law Judge agreed with me, and he did lose his protections on the day that occurred. As far as the KFC comment and the racist remark made to a security guard, those were striking employees, not a union steward in a meeting with management. I've no doubt in my mind that if a union steward made such a comment in a meeting with management they would lose their protections under the old interpretation of the equality principle. I'm not really sure why such language would be tolerated even for strikers, though, as it is clearly violating the old interpretation of the equality principle. But that's not a fault of the language of the equality principle or the old interpretations of it, but poor decision-making on the part of the ALJ that heard the case. [/QUOTE]
