a city bus driver demanded to operate another bus because the one she was assigned had an ad in it for "Lavender" magazine, which is geared towards homosexuals, and the bus company actually gave her a different bus!

I don't agree. Because you drive the bus does not mean you condone the advertising on it. If she truly believed in her moral system she would stop working for Metro Transit altogether due to their support of the lifestyle they supposedly condone due to their accepting advertising dollars for the ad. Her point is mute.

I believe if this offended the driver in some way, than yes this the right thing to do. Maybe it was a moral issue or personal ethics that made the driver demand a different bus.

No I don't think they should have given here another bus.. When would it end? once they do it for one they have to do it for all. and whats the big deal Its a flippin ad on a bus, everyone knows it has nothing to do with the driver.

yes, by her driving that bus it ment she was promoting the lavender magazine. if they would not give her a different bus then they were not letting her exercise her first amendment right that claims she has a freedom of speech.

Lord only knows!!! Things happen for a reason!
If she didnt feel comfortable, then I guess she had the right to get another bus!

Yes it was. If the ad for the magazine made the driver feel uncomfortable then yes they should reassign her.

Yes we have a right not be bombarded by people who chose an alternate life style being gay is a choice you are not born that way i don't care what they say! Those of us who are heterosexual don't have to be subjected to what we call immoral life style that is a right that we also enjoy thanks to the founding fathers!

Yes - If she felt that strongly against it then she is entitled to her rights and own opinion.
