  How is it you are so comfortable taking opinion and turning it into facts ?
  
  "I think the results" - is your opinion. Just because the store paid out, simply means they are trying to appease the population. not to alienate a customer base, its simply good marketing, nothing more. Its less expensive than having protestors in front of the store.  Just because the city settled by paying out, all it means is the city felt it less expensive to offer them some money instead of a long and drawn out court case. 
  
  And your statement of "forced retirement" ? Please provide a link to the factual data to show that he was forced into retirement - again, its just your opinion.
  
  If I were employed someplace and my employer failed to back me up, failed to follow through with a thorough investigation and caved in to popular opinion instead of investigating facts, damn straight i would quit my job too.
