The company feared the promotion of a law would be "intolerent to homosexuals"...well THAT certainly justifies violating a man's First Amendment rights. (scarcasm)

Cargill had every right to fire him. They probably just realized that doing so would be a terrible business decision.

I'm not sure I'd want the job back. Perhaps he has little choice.

Sounds like some low level supervisor was being PC and the big guns had to come in and fix it.

"reasonably construed as a show of hostility and intolerance toward homosexuals." Is that actionable?

Marriage is a "contract" authorized/regulated by law. A "company" exists because it is "incorporated", and a "corporation" is also authorized/regulated by law.

Incoporated companies have a vested interest in the continued existence of marriage, partnership and corporations.

Otherwise the neighborhood gang would have as much right to their assets as they would.

Obviously the company's managers have thought this one out a little bit more, but they really ought to see who it is blocking access to the men's room more often.
