#1 great writing.

Yesterday, Yousufi declined to comment. "I'm in a really bad situation right now," he said. "I have to take the stand, but I still have to earn a living."

so he actually did comment. He did leave off the part where he feels a hostile work environment because he's a thin-skinned prick, IMNSHO - The guy played a joke and paid for it.

#2 "environment because of his ethnicity, "a non-white person of Afghan descent who is perceived to be of the Muslim faith."

So, is he NOT of the Muslim faith?

If his charges are valid, I sympathize. However, it is hard to tell from the info given in the article.
