When I was in business I just hired the person that appeared to be the best person for the job. I hired homos and straights, men and women, black or brown or white, never giving a thought to it. However if I were hiring people today, I would give women homos, and minorities an extra review due to the fact they could so easily sue over the most trivial event.
This shit ain't helping any special victim class in small business...well any successful non-governmental service company.
