Kelvin Cochran Vindicated
In what is clearly a victory for free speech and the free expression of religion, the City of Atlanta has agreed to settle with Kelvin Cochran for $1.2 million in damages and attorneys’ fees. For those who may not remember him, Mr. Cochran was the Atlanta Fire Chief who was suspended in November, 2014 for writing a book on his own time that expressed biblical views on marriage and sex. He was later fired in January, 2015. This happened at the height of the hysteria that said everyone must approve of same sex marriage.
