After a hearing last Friday and conversations with the city attorney, the employment of part-time Library Specialist Cameron Dequintez Williams was terminated on Wednesday.

He was charged with burning books from the library written by conservative authors.

Library officials said, "The city of Chattanooga Human Resources Department completed its investigation of an allegation that books were removed from the Chattanooga Public Library’s Main Branch on Dec.
quote:

"The investigation determined that part-time Library Specialist Cameron Williams violated city and Library policies by improperly removing items from the Library’s collections."

“The city of Chattanooga has policies in place to protect the public’s interest, and we follow those directives,” said Library Executive Director Corinne Hill.

Williams was one of the leaders of local protest activities last summer. He and fellow protest leader

Marie Mott were charged by Chattanooga Police with obstructing an intersection and blocking an emergency vehicle. Later the same day, they were charged by the Hamilton County Sheriff's Office in connection with taking the Sheriff's flag from the county jail and burning it at Miller Park.

Imagine taking the time to do this. Burn books you don’t agree with. No way I’d ever burn Capital. I need people to see how illogical it is.

What that doesn't say is he was on paid administrative leave for two months between the burning incident and his firing...

Let’s tally up the similarities between progressives and Nazis:

1. Believe in powerful central government that touches and controls virtually every facet of your life.

2. Targets one group or race to blame as the source of all of society’s problems.

3. Controls all sources of education, information, and media and uses them to further their political agenda.

4. Censors and persecutes those who do not fully accept the party’s political ideology.

5. Utilize intimidation and violence to further their political agenda.

And now we can add to the list...

6. Burns books which run counter to their political dogma.

I’m assuming “conservative books” actually just means non-fiction

Shouldn’t we find out who he votes for and then place all of the blame on that person and have a congressional hearing about it?

That’s what we do now right?
