He says he's proud of SDG&E for taking any allegations of racism seriously, but he wants his job back.
all of the blame falls squarely on the losers who run SDG&E for caving to some lunatic shite stirrer. These pussies need to be held accountable for firing decent people just because they're too scared to stand up to an online mob.

The stranger followed Cafferty and took a picture of him as his arm hung out the window of his company truck.

There's a guy that needs to beat about the head and neck with a steel pipe.

Didn’t the guys at the Naval Academy just get a reprimand when something similar happened last year?

NBC 7 spoke to the man who originally posted the picture on Twitter. He has since deleted his account and said he may have gotten "spun up" about the interaction and misinterpreted it. He says he never intended for Cafferty to lose his job.

I hope he gets sued into oblivion. Like homeless on the streets type bankruptcy.

I’m willing to bet he only recanted because the question was phrased in a way that brought up him being Mexican-American as opposed to “white”

a claim Cafferty was making a "white power" hand gesture made popular by white supremacists groups.


I think this is where I realize our society is fricked. When I type "ok" into a text on my iPhone, it suggests this emoji

How this gesture ever got equated with white supremacy, and then so many retards have just gone with it just makes me depressed for the future.

I use that emoji all the time in texts. Hell, I think I sent that to one of my black coworkers recently. I guess I’ll wait patiently for my impending pink slip.

You’d think lawyers would be lined up to sue the crap out of the company for wrongful termination.

Because they were playing the circle game and had no clue that some internet trolls had convinced the mainstream media it was a white power sign, which it is not.
