A second employee at US Immigration and Customs Enforcement is suing Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano over claims his career was curtailed due to anti-male bias at the agency, The Post has learned.

Jason Mount alleges in court papers that he was denied 43 promotions because he’s a white male and that he took a lower-grade job because of “how serious the discrimination and retaliation had become.”

Is reverse discrimination allowed and accepted in America today? If what these guys claim is occurring under the Obama Administration’s watch and Janet Napolitano’s watch over the Department of Homeland Security proves to be true, will you be as outraged by discrimination against white males as you are for other genders, races, ethnicities or sexual orientations?

Does the mere accusation of discrimination outrage you the same when it comes from a straight white male as it does when it comes from one of the aforementioned “protected” groups? If not, why?

reverse descrimination is still illegal,as decrimination is a 2 way street,not a one way street that only applies to select minorities you approve of.

So if you and two other guys you work with showed up for work one day and found that a few lesbians had moved all of your stuff out of your office and into the men's restroom, you'd probably think you were being discriminated against?
 
Mounts claim is no different from any other discrimination case and it should be investigated thoroughly. If his description of what happened is accurate, Napolitano should be punished. Hold off the persecution complex until we actually we can verify what actually happened.

It won't be the first time whites have been discriminated against in favor of minorities. Happens all the time...with LEO's, firefighters, scholarships. Even in major corporations as they try to keep their numbers politically correct.

43 times, though? Sounds like he'd better brush up on his Spanish.
 
Agent Mount was denied over 40 promotions in 3 years??? The Infantry in heavy combat hands out promotions like bubble gum but a chance at over 40 promotions in 3 years??? THAT is pure gravy! They must all be generals by now!

Be interesting to see if Agent Mount can prove it was based on his having a penis not just acting like a dick. Works and plays well with others counts and if you don't please your boss you are not getting the office you think you deserve. Network well or you don't break out of the pack. Bosses pick who they work best with and promote those who are good little troopers.

Might be the last Hurrah of the old boy network... be interesting to see how it turns out...

See how the 'left' mocks white/males, this is exactly what they wanted from the start.

They should have never been given equal rights.

You have obviously have trouble with math and statistics. If there are 40 open positions for “Infantry in heavy combat” and a guy doesn’t get any of those promotions because his supervisor discriminates against him, it could all occur in a single day.

Read my sig dude. You do have the right to remain lazy but you don’t have the right to respect.
 
No Sir,

It is common sense laughing at the whining white males do when they feel they no longer get exclusive rights to the executive bathroom. Seriously, over 40 promotions?

If you want to do some knee-jerking look at the whining done in this forum about lesbians leftie athletes and poor lil' Lolo :roll:

I must admit I chuckle at the carrying on some do over the plight of downtrodden Christians- whites males in particular. Get grip, it ain't going to get any 'better'... :peace

try and spin it anyway you want, no way, no how did Agent Mount apply for 40 promotions in a single day, so try and stick to realistic scenarios. Agent Mount has only one real beef, he didn't get the office he felt was 'worthy' of his position. :roll:

Met many a spoiled brat who once their ego was damaged by a real or in this case most likely an imagined slight, cop a bad attitude and his supervisors didn't tolerate it. He wasn't fired, he just wasn't promoted and moved into a job where his crap didn't get on the Boss's shoes.

I'll admit alot of the right wing whiners are far more energetic than I. To jump through the hoops, rend their garments, howl at the 'injustice', fling spittle while decrying poor white men in America....

Now that takes some work! :peace

Are you judjing this case because it is a white male complaining or are you judging it based upon the merits? Who are you to say there aren’t 40 positions per day, week or month at DHS? Do you know how many positions were available in DHS or ICE at any given time? I didn’t think so.

If you don’t know, you don’t know, so don’t talk like you know when you don’t know.

Isn't ICE made up of mostly males? Who did get the promotions? If other males got those jobs, how could it be descrimination against males?

Well whenever those evil Christians, white, males ever get power back your political representation will be taken away forever. Lesson learned.

Of course it's acceptable. It's politically correct to discriminate against men.
 
Talk about jumping to conclusions, those decrying the end of white, male Christian dominance in this country have ZERO, I say again NO freakin' clue what the merits of the case are, only what one disgruntled man claims. Over 40 snubs at promotions, I know a bit of what it takes to actually apply for a Gubmint job slot, he must not have been doing his job to make that many official applications.

Something is hinky when ICE, not noted for a being a female bastion of an all-girls club, has whiny white dudes claiming they were discriminated against by mean ol' girls.

Let me take a picture of that for the next time I want to comment on someone grasping at straws....

Got it... :peace

As a GS-15 Supervisory Special Agent he is entitled to an office because of the items he is handling. There was lesser grade woman in offices who were not supervisors.

As for applying for 40 jobs on the GS-15 level within 3 years is not unusual. There are about 100 office worldwide people are constantly transfer and when the position opens up you need to apply if you want to transfer there. As of today there are 2 in NYC alone open and more to come. There are 6 GS-15 within DHS on USA jobs as of Today.

How do you explain he got 100 on the job qualifications for the Boston Job, completed over 18 months at HQ (A requirement) and is a current GS-15. The job went to a woman who was a GS-14 and never did HQ time. The woman could not have achieved a 100 on the test because several question deal with jobs at HQ. If you spent no time there you miss out on the points.
 
I don't know. 43 times? I'd rather see some evidence. The whole thing smells like somebody's got a political axe to grind. What would he have done if had gotten them?
 
Transfer from headquarters to another office in the country. You have to do one year in the field as GS-15 in order to get promoted to SES.
 
As the story says, that's 2 high level officials who have filed complaints against Neopolitano. High government officials don't do that kind of thing unless they are really pushed.

Being disgruntled over promotions is one thing, but some of the allegations sound pretty wild. All the men's offices were moved to the men's bathroom? A high level official who was denied office space? I don't see how that can be explained.

These matters can be frustrating to the general public because we may never find out what is really going on.
 
So out of roughly 20,000 employees in ICE, not noted for being the estrogen corps, two guys who got snubbed, had high level positions, got the ass and filed lawsuits. We have seen Generals and their staffs go off the reservation, Preachers have meltdowns, White House officials go off the reservation but not these two. Really?

Being the poster boys for discrimination probably fits a hole in their egos. time will tell.

Ain't it awesome how Libbos promote racial and gender discrimination?
 
Agent's are not political appointees. Pull the case and read it for yourself
