On Edit: Okay, you've convinced me, I'm calling my boss to let him know about the complaints. Some of my workers are going to call him on their own to report the stuff they've seen her do.

I'm an assistant manager at a movie theatre, one of my newly trained employees is possibly the most conservative person I have ever met face to face. On her first day of work she started to argue with me about whether or not Michael Moore lied in F911, then proceeded to harass customers exiting that film (resulting in a lot of comp;laints that I had to deal with). When I ask her to prove that F911 has lies in it she couldn't but then said "MM went on CNN and stated that 50% of the film is nothing but lies and that people shouldn't go see it and he's sorry for questioning bush" (Ummm....did she expect me to believe that?) She then proceeds to call Americans stupid for electing that idiot and that she only supports him for his economic policies (she comes from a very wealthy family) and his unwavering support of israel and killing muslims , all of whom are evil (prompting another customer complaint from a muslim waiting on line to see F911). She has also stated that israel should nuke the rest of the world and take it over like god wants them.
The other conservatives that I work with (some of whom I managed to convert) think she's insane. She doesn't see anything wrong with her views, or the fact that you shouldn't ever argue with customers about politics, and she tells that staff really whacked out stuff about how she had 15 abortions and cuts herself listening to metallica because the voices in her head (I think shes trying to say liberals do that but she isn't making her point very clear)

What the hell do I do in a situation like this? She refuses to stop doing these kinds of things, but I can't keep letting her scare off customers/staff. I can't fire her because she'll scream antisemitism/liberal conspiracy/sexual harassment.
