"We've tried to avoid drama, but they just keep on keeping on, flipping us off and calling us names every day. But Murphy's father allegedly ripped up the note, shouted homophobic slurs, and flipped off Baker once again, he told WPLG, so he finally called the police."
"In the video, Murphy calls Baker and his husband "disgusting f**king f**gots" and says that they probably have AIDS. Baker then responds that she probably has syphilis, which can cause mental illness if left untreated. "Put me online, you fu** ing f**got," she continued. "And guess what? I know where your car is.""
"Soon after, the company announced that it had fired Murphy, adding, "The views expressed by this individual do not reflect the values of our company, our culture, or the principles we uphold.""
Allison Murphy was terminated from her job at Valley Forge Fabrics after a video went viral showing her verbally attacking her gay neighbors in Wilton Manors, Fort Lauderdale. The conflict began when Murphy and her husband repeatedly parked in their neighbors' yard and allowed their dog to use the lawn as a restroom. After written requests to stop were ignored and allegedly torn up by Murphy's father, police were called. The video captured Murphy using homophobic slurs and making derogatory comments about her neighbors' health. Online users identified Murphy and contacted her employer, leading to her termination. The company stated her views did not reflect their values or principles.
