Send out a global email making that point.

Sorry to have caused this much confusion and distress, tough guy, but I was agreeing with Danzig's original point... I was speaking colloquially (look it up if you need to, but I'm certain you don't).
I believe most of us have mastered the Constitutional limits of freedom of speech long ago, (yelling fire in a crowded movie house, yada, yada)... thus doesn't protect someone from maligning their employer or causing damage to their employer's business/image/reputation.
But thanks for clearing that up not once, but twice.
The point (which was apparently missed) was in the past, everyone involved would have had a good laugh over it proceeded by a slap on the wrist and a reprimand to not do it again.
Instead we have SJW bloggers in full meltdown, a MLB franchise apologizing (for being
insensitive, no less), and an employee fired.
Welcome to the 21st Century.
