. >> and ms. mooreook at a case like this, it's striking in part because the audio exists, quite frankly. there's more evidence here than there are sometimes in other workplace disputes. and we've had a debate around the country, as i mentioned here in introducing you, about whether we need federal protections because it is legal in so many places to fire someone for their orientation or their -- you know, what an employer may believe their orientation is. what do you see to folks who think we don't need those protections because that kind of activity is so rare it doesn't happen in america? >> i feel that we all deserve equal rights, regardless of where we work, what our jobs are. we need equal rights. we need to be treated fairly. and that's it. the only thing i've done was my job. and i'm ready to get back and serve my town. >> mm-hmm. all right. well, crystal moore, we appreciate you spending some time sharing your views with us. it's a story that i think a lot of people are interested in around the
