This time it’s not just random schmoes who, in some sudden moment, blurted out Wrongthink. No, this time it’s people who plotted and planned to commit acts of violence and criminality, complaining that, lo and behold, there are consequences.

I fully expect that corporate HR departments keep or perhaps trade back and forth databases of people who get themselves into the news, their mugshots splashed on the pages of local or even national news. I certainly hope that *somebody* is keeping a record of all the commie scumbags who have been arrested – and generally promptly released by commie scumbag DAs/prosecutors. Most of them may well not face the legal system for their crimes. But it would be advisable for companies to know that so-and-so was arrested for setting a Starbucks on fire or for  trying to blind cops or for being an extremist whackaloon trying to tear down civilization. Not only are such people bad employees – you never know when they’ll decide to set the break room on fire – they are also a PR nightmare.
