A federal appellate court rejected the appeal of an upstate man who was fired from his job at a school district in 2018 after refusing to attend a mandatory workplace LGBTQ training.
In the lawsuit, Zdunski sought reinstatement, back pay and $10 million in damages, but District Court Judge Geoffrey W. Crawford dismissed the case a year ago. David O’Rourke, district superintendent and CEO of Erie 2-Chautauqua-Cattaraugus BOCES reiterated that Zdunski was not fired because of his religious beliefs, but because he continuously refused to attend the mandatory training program.
After refusing to take part in the training session, Zdunski asked his bosses to schedule a mandatory training session concerning the persecution of Christians, according to court documents.
what a worker. training is training,,,and thats paid work to stand around... we should be paid to walk to work, as walking is work at it's very essential innertia driven travelling of space in order to read lined data, which our sidewalks are full of cracked and crooked genius ?
1984 but unironically
Fealty and obedience will be exacted.👨⚖️
Ridiculous 🙄
Take it further. SupremeCourt You’re fighting for more rights than you think, as more and more is being forced upon everyone.
There is an art to mocking the instructors and the class in general while appearing genuine and not getting written up. Co-workers will appreciate your effort.
It's not training. It's indoctrination. Like forcing employees to embrace a particular view on same sex marriage. This is going to the US Supreme Court. Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 protects an employee's religious beliefs.
Training on how to love people who are unlike you (that was your parents job)? Or, why Males should be allowed in the ladies room? 2nd part, hard no! You boss can try and make you learn whatever, they own you 9-5. Thanks Biden administration 🙄
America Is a kingdom of Sodom
Confuse system
LGBTQ training? 🤣🤦♂️🤡🌎
How can they force a straight person to be LGBTQ? That's like forcing a lesbian to like cock
OMG give it up.
Free country my ass.
Do-do I would fight it to the supreme court. Now your force to be gay -- do-do -
Let’s be honest here, this training is about the acceptance of T’s, the other letters have already been here for some time and is fairly common anymore. It how to hand the T’s, which is getting out of hand!
The cult indoctrination of such training is striking. They tell you how to talk, how to think, not to use mundane words like mom, dad, gendered terms, tell you to use proprietary pronouns and 'model humility' when you 'get it wrong'. Wrong? According to whom? Say no to cults.
All we want is to get married.
The left controls the establishment And this is repercussions of that
TopsyRjl76 I hope he sues!
WOW!!
Biden's campaign slogan next year. The year of trans!
Supreme Court plz
DISGRACEFUL
Sad world
“You didn’t take the training course so we could prepare you not to unfairly harass gay customers bc they’re equally all out money makers, and you refused so we gotta fire you.” Republicans: “NOW WHY CANT THEY PROTEST WHAT THEY BELIEVE!! THE PROPOGANDA IM TELLIN YOU!!”
Remember when gays said they only wanted equal rights ? Well that was a lie. They have a radical agenda and are forcing it onto everyone including children. I am gay and I find all this to be sick.
Unless stipulated that all mandatory courses must be attended, he could fight on the grounds of unilateral changes to his contract of his employment without his affirmative assent. An employment contract is a legal document that works both ways. Its why both parties have to sign.
No one is going to tell me what I need to believe .. good for this man .. other jobs out there
Take it to the Supreme Court, if possible.
Gotta put a stop to this.
Mfs in lgbtq training( whatever the fuck that means)
More reasons that new York is dystopian shit hole.
We’re one lost country
same judge also said you have no rights to stop being terrorized by Democrats in every Democrat run city in the USA. Amazing. The klan is strong and still alive with their founders.

This community only creates division.
Every state is at will so employers have all the power.
I bet they don’t have a training program at BOCES for students where they have to learn to speak without saying the N word every five seconds followed with “nah wha Im sayen”. But sure we need to have a save environment for students. 🙄
This case should be submitted to Supreme Court .
Probably was a straight white male.
But hey, it’s all about letting people be who they are and never about imposing anything on anyone who isn’t a part of it.
Tactics of Joseph Goebbles
Because this is not America anymore it's pedo joes alphabet show!!
Gayest thing I have ever heard
This is why most people hate the lgbt community it will only get worse stop forcing people to pander to you just like christians dont force you to sit through their sermons
You cannot refuse harassment training, that's what this likely was. Should you be able to forego some training if it violates a religions belief, yes. Will they allow that, no. They'll tell you that discrimination is wrong, then discriminate against you 🤷♂️
Your country is doomed.
This kind of stuff just makes less and less people support LGBT community. Forcing people to support them, or lose their job isn't going to make you gain support. Lol Idc either way tbh, not religious, but I don't see it ending well in terms of support.
Land of the free and the home of the brave….
So wrong
ridiculous
Of course NY liberal judges ruled against.
We can’t be forced to worship that flag.
This doesn't help. Does the LGBT community want acceptance or dominance? If it's the latter it'll never happen. Bigots will always exist but all this does is make people who wouldn't care either way view the LGBT community negatively. It's almost like they want to be hated
Big and great news!
Fagscism
That worker 🗿
WTH
Ny is all but gone unless people are willing to change it
He was promoted a week before getting fired....so he was doing a good job and if he had no HR issues, the training being forced was unnecessary. Doesn't make sense and without recourse, the side with the power will continue to forcefully impose on the opposing side.
The Alphabet is now weaponized
Freddy41655488 That is wrong.
“You will not question the propaganda. You will accept this non sense whether you like it or not.” And then they wonder why they are becoming universally hated.
That’s really gay
He thought if he went to this training session he would come out no longer being a Christian? He thought if he went to this training session he would come out no longer being straight? He thought if he went to this training session he would come out no longer being a cis male?
Yikes seeing american flag with some shitty rainbow garbage mixed looks 🤢🤢🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮
So they were training them to be LGBTQ? So confused. I’d quit too, if true. 😏
This will only get worse with the lawyers coming out of places like Stanford. America is dying
Well it is NY
Woke courts.
I completely agree with you all, but this being a free country if your private company wants you to go through backflip training and you refuse they have the right to let you go. They want to have a certain type of workplace it’s their right
Take it to the US supreme court 👍🏻
Did he work in risk management for SVB?
There is no justice in blue states for religious freedom.
United States of Gay.
We all know who runs the jevvdicial system.
Conservatives sure are in favor of the free market until it does something they don’t like.
Good. They can find a new job
Which court? Next higher court?
Look at that disgusting defacement of the American flag.
Conservatives need to leave blue states, those states will fail once the Conservatives leave.
