OH WHAT A TANGLED WEB THIS IS:

Recently I heard about a woman in Southern California who has decided that she wants to wear her Hijab during Ramadan. The problem is she works for Disneyland and they have a dress code (uniforms) which forbids the use of a garment like that.

When I served in the military we had uniforms and there were a lot of restrictions on what we could and could not have on, in or around those uniforms. We were not given the option of wearing a cross unless we were a chaplain, we could not personalize the uniforms beyond the nametags they gave us and even our underwear was issued to us. That is just the way it is.

Anyway long and short of it she said that “[They] sent her home and would not let her wear it, thereby infringing on her freedom of religion.”

Now I believe that a person or A private business, ought to be allowed to do things the way the business or the person wants, WITHIN REASON, the needs of the business though outweigh the wants of the person. And if a person cannot abide by the needs of the business they ought to find another job where they can.

the whole purpose to our country’s laws and ideals is individual freedoms. The problem is people today are unwilling to let others have their freedoms, “that can’t happen”.
They will sue a business for making the person conform to a dress code. Where I would say YOU knew about the dress code before starting to work there, If the dress code was unsuitable to you then you should not have taken that job, they would say no that employer hires people so he or she has to do it the way WE want him or her to do it.
SORRY TO TELL YOU BUT, YOU CHOSE TO WORK THERE! LIVE WITH IT, or get another job.

I think the way it works (and ought to work) is that, as an employer, it is MY money And therefore MY choice.
Same with property or goods, I chose to buy this stuff and NO ONE in this world ought to be able to tell me that I cannot use the item I BOUGHT or tell me how I should use it. It is my stuff, it is my property it is my choice.
If you do not want people being able to choose how to use that which they spent their money on, DON’T SELL IT TO THEM.
I get so frustrated at all the people who want to say, “yeah you just purchased that land for 3 million dollars but you can’t build your house on it because we think it ought to be used for a park instead. If you want to build a park there then YOU need to pay the three million to buy it so you can put the park in. But until then shut up and let the owner do what ever he wants.

The ONLY possible exception I can see is when there is a negative impact on the people or property around there, and it has to be an extreme level to count.
In other words if you are pumping hazardous waste into the stream on the back of your property then that is a no go because that stream doesn’t really belong to you. The water doesn’t just stay on your property, it will flow down to the sea and once it is off your property then it is no longer for you to use. In that kind of a case you are poisoning the property of your neighbors or even the neighbors themselves and that is not good.

But just because YOU like trees doesn’t mean you have the right to tell the property owner he HAS to leave them alone. Their loss is not necessarily particularly damaging to nature or other people (unless it is the last of that kind of tree period end of story.)
There is no carry over to other things in other words. So shut up it’s his/her property leave him/her alone.

Likewise if someone has a business, how or she chooses to run that business is no concern of your’s. If you do not like his or her hiring practices or the way he or she treats his or her employees then you can tell him or her how you feel and then decide to NOT use the product that business puts out.
BUT you DO NOT have the right to tell the owner that he or she HAS to abide by your choice.
You want to tell people how to run a business? GET YOUR OWN $%#@ BUSINESS!

Too many people want to tell others what to do and I for one think it’s time that we start looking to our own selves and doing what we think is right for us, each, individually instead of focusing on what everyone else does.
Some people would say that this is a shortsighted outlook, but it isn’t really. We can still show concern and we can still try to help others to see their mistakes.
But unless it is truly causing great harm, if the business has the practice of going out and hitting people on the head and putting them to work against their will, if the business is making life unlivable for people who have no choice to change it through pollution, if the business is stealing from people, or if the business is specifically hunting resources to destroy all that is needed all over the world, or if they are buying up all of something and destroying it to create scarcity. Yeah that kind of unethical immorality needs to be stopped.

But if they don’t take good care of the employee, the employee can quit. It is the employee’s choice to work there, if the business is making a product you don’t like then you can just not buy that product, if the business has a restrictive dress code then you can choose to not work there. And in each if these cases you have the choice, as a consumer, to not shop there.
I do not think you ought to have the choice to sue them for deciding to do what they want to do when it comes down to an issue of personal responsibility or choice like that.
