Heterosexuals become victims of homosexual thought police.
Woman sues after she was fired for saying being 'gay' is not same as being black.
An African-American woman is suing the university where she worked for firing her over a privately written newspaper commentary expressing her Christian views on homosexuality.
Crystal Dixon, the former associate vice president of human resources at the University of Toledo, was fired in May after she objected to an opinion article in the Toledo Free Press that compared striving for "gay rights" with the civil rights struggles of black Americans.
Dixon responded with a Free Press editorial of her own, written not in her capacity as a university employee but as a private citizen.
"As a Black woman," Dixon wrote, "I take great I take great umbrage at the notion that those choosing the homosexual lifestyle are 'civil rights victims.' Here's why. I cannot wake up tomorrow and not be a black woman. I am genetically and biologically a black woman and very pleased to be so as my Creator intended."
University of Toledo President Lloyd Jacobs immediately suspended Dixon and condemned her statements. Within days, Dixon was fired.
Now, with the help of the Thomas More Law Center, a not-for-profit law firm dedicated to the defense and promotion of the religious freedom of Christians, Dixon has today filed a lawsuit in Federal District Court claiming violations of her constitutional rights of free speech.
"Crystal Dixon has a constitutional right to privately express her personal opinions," said Richard Thompson, president and chief counsel of the Law Center, in a statement.
"This particular opinion represents the view of a majority of Christian Americans," Thompson continued. "Essentially she was fired for being a Christian."

It will be interesting to see how the courts rule on this case. There is no doubt that Ms. Dixon signed a contract with the university which contained certain business conduct guidelines. A violation of those guidelines appears to be the basis for her dismissal. If that’s the case is she really protected by the 1st and 14th Amendments?
"We have asserted from the beginning that Ms. Dixon was in a position of special sensitivity as associate vice president for human resources and this issue is not about freedom of speech, but about her ability to perform that job given her statements." Toledo spokesman Larry Burns
If a homosexual white male, vice president for human resources at the same university, said that the election of Barack Obama has eradicated all barriers to race in America, and that Afrikan Americans no longer need the protections of Title VII of the Civil Rights Act would he be fired? Probably!
However, Ms. Dixon is right on one point, nothing compares to being Black in America—not even DV’s beloved “po white trash.”

1) Why would he be fired?
2) Should he be fired?
Black people do not need the "protections" (from WHAT were Black people protected? from WHOM were Black people protected?)
Group Identity Politics is a booby trap.
There is NO SUCH THING AS "a homosexual white male,".
God made men.
God made women.
All of the other categorizations, labels and identifiers are superstitious voodoo.
Remember a few years ago Plantation Negros were walking around referring to themselves as "minorities"?
Aint that a bitch?
Think about how twisted and confused one must be to participate in such make believe.
