An Allstate employee who wrote anti-gay articles on his company laptop and was suspended without pay and escorted from company grounds has filed a lawsuit against the company. “In the article ‘Intolerance' Will Not Be Tolerated! The Gay Agenda vs. Family Values,' he called same-sex marriages make-believe, ‘oxymoronic' and an example of ‘societal de-evolution.' He praised ‘homosexual recovery organizations' and lambasted liberals for decrying the harm caused by tobacco, drugs and alcohol but not ‘the dreadful and preventable health related pitfalls, which stem from the homosexual lifestyle.' When the article was published on mensnewsdaily.com, they included his employment with Allstate in the bio information. (thanks scott)
