What's kinda nuts about the whole thing: Lackawanna is a largely Arab population...

Fun fact about the culinary union here. Its widely known amongst the workers here that ANY racial comment made to anyone on property is dealt with harshly, as it should be...unless you are white and it was directed at you, then your grievance is somehow dismissed. However, if you are white and gay, you're good to go right to the hall with your grievance and will likely win.

This is a good sign for gay rights, but kinda goofy in the double standards department.

Great decision by the jury, but it's a damn shame the attorneys will get most of it.
