Default Gina Carano, fired for being a con, wins.

Yeah, go woke, go broke.

Winning.

Fire over politics, lose in court.

Criminal acts are one thing, political affiliation is not a crime.

Dumb firing. Wasn't for being a,con, just for being offensive.

Loved her character. Plus she brought the thiccness that was missing from season 3

Also Devo, it wasn't a loss in court. It was a settlement.

I'm going to go watch Haywire for the 14th time. She was great in it

She was great in Haywire! And you are correct, It was a settlement not a victory. People get fired for all sorts of reasons. Sometimes just for pissing off the boss.

Pro Business conservatives should be seeing this lawsuit for what it was. A nuisance suit that should never been filed. The only reason it went anywhere is because Elon Musk bankrolled it. I would bet that the only people to benefit from this suit were the lawyers involved on both sides.

In this world, a settlement IS a win.

Kind of like getting a short term sentence on a federally charged crime, when you know you have five percent chance of winning.

My father and his friend were charged with Illegal duck hunting in the Chesapeake Bay years ago, they didn't have any ducks, but they still ended up losing and paying the fine.

I had to represent our Grandfather, for being fired over his age, and being partially deaf, there was no way he could contest it in PA, because you have no rights, IF you are fired, the adjudicator in the case told us that, she then, asked if we'd take a partial settlement for his back pay and pension, we agreed.

She got twenty five months of partial back pay, and a partial pension, about 2/3s of what he was promised.

It wasn't all of the money, but enough that it was justice of sorts for HIM, not what we wanted, but, take what you can.

So yes, I do think in most cases a settlement is a win.

You can think that. Doesn't make it true.

She was fired for likening the treatment of American conservatives to that of Jews in Nazi Germany. Lol. Such an idiotic drama queen who has no idea what she's talking about. She absolutely deserved to be fired, and I'm glad she was.

Conflating, but ok.

Gina Carano is still a goddess

Well, she makes a case for it, and I agree, they weren't treated fairly under the law.

Edit to ADD: Well calling Trump Hitler is just as outrageous to say.

So.

Ok, but this thread's not about you. It's about the thicc goddess that got fired by Disney and got to walk away with their money

Yo.

You know why?

Because I believe we are all responsible for our actions.

People go into rehab and pledge allegiance to a higher power.

Okay.....

Jesus made you pick up a beer, and you are so weak you had to drink eight more.

Excuses.

You, made YOU, drink the eight beers after number one.

So, when you decide to submit to a higher power, why not admit it was always YOUR decisions that determine who you are.
