[So] I just got "terminated"

I think the most logical conclusion (assuming this story isn't 100% bullshit, which is a possibility coming from blitz) is that one of the moms saw him taking her picture, or her child's picture, freaked out and complained. Either that or one of the moms reads tribalwar.

Well, for one thing, he has no idea what the requirements are to make a prima facie case for defamation. Like, at all.

Defamation and other "accounts?" :lol:

For another, this is likely an employment-at-will contract so they can pretty much fire his ass for whatever reason (even though there is cause here) as long as its not based on race or the like.

Oh, and then theres the fact the D.A. is the one that files the criminal complaint. (True, D.A.'s are lawyers, but its not the victim's counsel that decides if charges are pressed which is what seems to be implied).

I agreed he was a tool I was just wondering what you thought was so funny there is all

also the employment laws that you guys in the states have, suck ass. Up here as long as you are past your probationary period (3 months, unless stated in a contract) then they have to follow alot of steps before they can fire you.

No he can't. To be a sexual offender you must have committed an offense. He hasn't committed any offense. All you 17 year old lawyers need to shut the fuck up about shit you don't understand.

The LP only mentioned the cops to scare Blitz into ratting out what other things happening in the store that he might have known about.

Edit: I think it is funny you all drool over the Hard Rock pics, but think what Blitz did is somehow different.


First of all you dont know shit about me and what I understand. I dont hate on Blitz, *but* as an employee posting pictures of unknown women in a sex thread he could be hualed in very easily, I dont know what sex offender laws are in AZ but here in FL they will put you on the list for almost anything.

This also doesnt fall under the catagory of just taking a picture in a public place either. While legally it wouldnt be prosecuted, if any of those women DID find out they could/would sue the shit out of them.
 
As for the case itself. I have no sympathy for the original poster. Taking pictures of women at work and posting it on the net? Telling his manager about it? Come on.

How could such a stellar plan possibly go wrong?!

Lesson learned, be glad it was Toys R' Us and not something in your chosen career

We know Mr "I get paid to take pictures of hot semi-naked women" knows his Photography laws ( I hate you by the way Taurus), but atleast in Ontario he could get away with it. Hell up here woman can go topless in public he could get some better shots :p
 
RE: camera phones and privacy issues

http://www.pcworld.com/news/article/0,aid,113632,00.asp

Dann, who has since been interviewed by other media, says he did not invade anyone's privacy. If a person acts like a jerk in public, "what's the difference if you have a camera phone or a regular camera to take a picture?"

For now, the law agrees. By going out in public, people surrender some privacy; a cam phone's immediacy alone does not violate privacy laws, says Daniel Solove, a law professor specializing in privacy law. So users are unlikely to be sued for taking shots like Dann's. But there are limits.

Some courts recognize an invasion of privacy if one's reputation is hurt or a photo causes severe embarrassment, says Solove, but such shots must be very offensive and not legitimate news--someone in an adult bookstore, for example.

Other cam phone uses are clearly illegal. In Japan, people have been arrested for taking photos up women's skirts (which is also illegal in parts of the U.S.), and shopkeepers are cracking down on digital shoplifting--photographing pages from books and magazines without paying for them.

Yeah, god forbid the owner (or owners if its a corporation) of a private business/Corp. decide who they want working for them. Better the government do that.

Hauled in for what? None of the pictures he took were sexual. Just because YOU wanked off to them, doesn't make them sexual.

Getting sued in America is always possible, but I don't care how many times you get sued in civil court, that WILL NOT PUT YOU ON THE SEXUAL OFFENDERS LIST. You have to be convicted in criminal court of a criminal act. He has not performed any criminal act in either taking or posting these pictures.
 
I think at the very most it would be considered harassment, depending on local laws. In NYC that's a violation, and it has to be witnessed by an officer.

without that law, a business could fire anyone for any reason. Which puts job security right out the window. I should not be fired because someone above decides he just doesn't like me despite that fact I am good at my job. Mind you i come from a Country with a different view on what makes a country strong ( this isn't an Anit-american post, I do not bash americans just because we have different priorities as far as our gov'ts are concerned)
