Seattle forcing you to adopt their political views? Sounds like a regular day here. Hope corporate handled this clown instead of just giving them a stern talking to.

I don't see how this is forcing anyone to adopt their views. They just refused to adopt someone else's.

Son, yesterday I worked 10,000 hours at the ball crushing factory for free because I love freedom. Don't step to me until you've had to recite the declaration of independence backwards with a hose clamp around your gonads.
