&gt; This article reads as &quot;Don&#x27;t take his advice. I don&#x27;t like him therefore his advice is bad.&quot;<p>It also misrepresents his actual advice, which was not &quot;fire the guy immediately&quot;, but &quot;consult with an attorney (and, parenthetically, my guess is that the attorney will say to fire the guy.)&quot;<p>The difference is important, because Patio11&#x27;s actual advice leaves open the possibility that the attorney might recommend something else, including, presumably, <i>not</i> firing the guy and instead using internal counseling managed by HR to try to resolve the situation and ensure it isn&#x27;t repeated. Patio11 <i>isn&#x27;t</i> pretending to be an authority here, he&#x27;s recommending consulting with someone who actually <i>is</i> an authority on the issue.
