Male Nurse Fired in Dearborn for Treating Muslim Women
 

De facto Sharia in Dearborn, Michigan. Those pesky 'conservative' Muslim males. I'll bet they are Tea Party supporters.

..and if he did not treat someone and that person died, we would be charged with a hate crime.

More backassward, uneducated crap from world of the Muslim male. Muslim women's health have suffered for decades because of the belief that no male shall see her except for her insecure weanie of husband.

This is fresh on my mind because I just finished reading a story about 3 Muslim women who were allowed to die by their husbands, rather than let them be treated by a male doctor. Idiots. All of them.

Rant over.

Oh, and may that male nurse be vindicated in every way.

We had better start putting an end to this nonsense. Now.

That's a fact. This PC bullcrap and bending over (no pun intended) to those frickin idiots has got to cease.

Keep them in the 11th century. Good Lord, it never ceases to amaze me...:mad:

Two points
 

Two points I notice.

1 - It was a public health service not private.

2 - He failed to do what his supervisor told him to do.

This court case will be interesting based on - Just what rules a public provider can put in place. Wonder if the female doc's can see male patients?

I'll wait to hear the entire story because it appears to me as if the following could be considered in deciding this case:

• The guy was working in a city health department facility performing routine services. He was fired in December 2010 and the Dearborn, MI, health department was closed 30 June 2011 due to budget cuts and all such services are now performed at local public or private medical facilities. The Dallas County Health and Human Services is typical of such a department. http://www.dallascounty.org/department/hhs/mission.html
  
• The guy's direct supervisor told him not to do something ICW some of the local community's wishes, a not unreasonable request for a non-medical emergency.
  
• The guy's direct supervisor's orders were countermanded by someone else and he did not go back to his supervisor to let her know of the conflicting instructions from the doctor, thus having his supervisor and the doctor decide the issue before going against his direct supervisor's instructions.

I'll wait for the rest of the story.

And so it goes...

Local wishes
 

"Local community's wishes" gets stepped on a lot by Federal law.

She needs to comply with the law of the land, just as everyone does.

She wasn't? Or is 'compulsory' or 'mandatory' medical treatment now the 'law of the land'? :confused:

See Commonwealth v. Twitchell, e.g. http://www.nymatlaw.com/commonwealth...-617-ne2d-609/

And so it goes...

Did I say she wasn't?

The immediate supervisor was not a doctor. A doctor told him to do something contrary to the supervisor's orders. In hospitals, I thought a doctor's words were law only superceded by a doctor higher up in the pecking order.

A doctor dies and goes to Heaven. Arriving at the Pearly Gates, he sees there is a long, long line. He walks up to the front of the line and confronts St Peter. "I'm Dr Johnson, I shouldn't have to wait in line because I am a doctor!" St Peter replies, "Everyone here is equal, you can wait just like everyone else."

Just then a man in a lab coat with a stethoscope around his neck walks in through the gates and says, "Hey Pete!". Dr Johnson is irate. He says, That guy is a doctor and didn't have to wait!" St Peter says, "Nah. That's God, he just thinks he's a doctor..."

If a female were to come me wearing a hijab and it's NOT an emergency...I'm sending her to someone else!:cool:

Stay safe.
