I think the employee should be fired in this case. He acted irrationally, and endangered people’s lives. Religion isn’t an excuse, anyone who intentionally dehydrates themselves and operates heavy machinery should expect the same treatment.

He did it because he’s a muslim though. It’s also the reason he got away without being punished.

If it’s racial, then i’m also a muslim. I’m 1/8th Moroccan.

Does that mean that I get to endanger people’s lives with no consequences too?

From Oxford Dictionary:

“Prejudice, discrimination, or antagonism directed against someone of a different race based on the belief that one’s own race is superior.“

Racism requires race to be involved in the conversation.

Regardless, Islam is not a race.

If the worker in question was not a muslim, and still behaved in the same way then they probably would have been reported. How can you describe this in any way except for special treatment?

Nobody mentioned race, why are you so quick to bring it up?

Dr. Drac sounds a lot better than my real name

Asking Linda for evidence of abuse is directly contradictory to thinking the Duluth Model is a good thing, and that everything counts as violence against women.

You are welcome to disagree, but I don’t see a conflict between a bully enjoying what they do, and them deliberately targeting people who they think are vunerable.

Although I don’t think they do it for enjoyment, it’s usually to feel they are in control. Usually because some other aspect of their life is out of their control.

I will one day, try and stop me.

I was simply exposing a hypocrisy in your position.

Wrong choice, muslims (or any other religious group) should not be given special treatment.

I think you are viewing this too simplisticly. Bullies usually target people who they thing are vunerable for some reason. Anything else (hair colour, clothing, ect) just provides the opertunity to start the abuse.

I’m well aware of this, but it isn’t always the case.

I didn’t say that everyone who commits sucide is mentally ill, only suicides that are ’caused’ by bullying. Or to phase it differently, someone with mental health issues is much more likely to commit suicide if they are bullied than someone who does not have the same issues.

I’m really sure I understand why you think that children can’t suffer…[Read more]

Yes, but for the bully to be able to tell that there is something wrong with their intended target, there must be some recognisable signs that they are acting off. If these can be recognised and taught to parents then it may allow any issues to be identified earlier and for an appropriate treatment to be started.

If this is true, then it also raises the question why the bully can detect that something is wrong, why can’t the child’s parents?

The Duluth model (as implemented) usually states that all claims of violence against a women must automaticly be believe. Proponents of this model usually also are the type that say that words are a type of violence. (The Duluth model also states that the women is always the vicim of the abuse, even if they are the agressor). It is something I…[Read more]
