Koran burner Derek Fenton fired from his job at NJ Transit

Koran burner Derek Fenton fired from his job at NJ Transit
"A radical who burned pages from the Koran outside a planned mosque near Ground Zero was fired from his job at NJ Transit, sources and authorities confirmed.

Derek Fenton, an 11-year employee at NJ Transit, was fired Monday, the agency said in a statement, two days after he was photographed burning the Koran.

'Mr. Fenton's public actions violated New Jersey Transit's code of ethics,' NJ Transit said.

'NJ Transit concluded that Mr. Fenton violated his trust as a state employee and therefore was dismissed.'

Fenton's hate-filled display occurred during a protest against the mosque on the ninth anniversary of Sept. 11"

Ya think if he burned an American flag, bible, Book of Mormon or Torah he'd get fired?
