Law Firm Fires Employee After ‘Threatening’ Post About his Gun, COVID-19 Mask Requirements
“A Dallas law firm fired an employee after he wrote in a Facebook post that lambasted businesses that require customers to wear masks during the COVID-19 pandemic and made references to firearms and ammunition,” report Dana Branham in The Dallas Morning News’ Public Health.
“The law firm, Thompson & Knight, called the post ‘threatening and offensive’ in a statement.”
“The firm’s chief marketing officer, Kelby Luther, confirmed Monday that the terminated employee is Kevin Bain, who had worked as a document services manager based in Dallas.”
“Luther said the firm’s statement refers to a widely shared Facebook post in which Bain referred to the Whole Foods grocery store on Lomo Alto Drive in Highland Park, saying that any business that insists he wear a mask ‘will get told to kiss my Corona ass and will lose my business forever.'”
