Re: "You are merely "being an a$$hole" and playing word games. The actions of implementing "keep the women in their place", as expressed by by stating the belief in the workplace - and acting on it - that "women belong at home" is the illegal act" If you can't understand the difference between thoughts and actions, then I suggest you are the a$$hole. In fact, even if you can tell the difference you are still an a$$hole for being so rude. Furthermore, expressing a belief is protected speech and cannot be illegal, in and of itself, unless someone has repealed the first amendment while I wasn't looking. An employer may forbid the expression of a belief, but that is not a matter of law, only company policy. Unless there is evidence that action is taken to impose that belief, such as a pattern of denying employment or advancement, or harrassment, then no crime has been committed. Despite the efforts of the liberal left, as yet thoughts are not illegal. I clearly pointed out that the belief itself was not illegal as the previous poster specifically claimed. You ignored that. Try and understand the distinction. EP
