One union supervisor working the Obama event this Friday apparently did not get the Whole "Freedom of Speech 'memo.
KTLA interviewed Duane Hammond stage hand at the scene, M, they just HAD Been fired from the International Alliance of Theatrical Stage Employees Union Local 33. According to Hammond, his supervisor Thurs Told him take off his hat and turn his sweatshirt inside out, as Printed Both were with the name "George HW Bush." When Hammond refused ", was Told they leave Thurs.
Of course, knowing They Were about to get slapped with the fattest lawsuit this side of Texas ...
... Union Officials called the Hammond Thurs Apologize as soon As They heard about the incident. The stage hand Told KTLA this afternoon That his Higher-ups are now "Bending over Backwards" to make it up to him.
As for the mystery supervisor, it Seems a strict "ESC ESC" and "One of Those nasty U.S. Citizenship tests are definitely in order.
(We'd Also like to know: How about the USC Handful of WHO, No Doubt hipsters showed up in Their Ironic "I Heart George Bush" T-shirts? Did They get kicked off campus, too? Seems only fair.)
The saddest part of Hammond's story: He Was not Even Trying To Make a Political Statement. The union worker KTLA Told That His Son, Who Is Currently in the navy, Serves the aircraft carrier USS George HW Bush., And That they recently Picked up the gear at Family Day.
