re: Getting Fired for Facebook Posts

Goes both ways. You can say all kinds of racist shite and not face any jail time or fines, but your boss can fire your arse on the spot. Nobody reasonable complained when Don Imus made his dumb arse "nappy headed hoes" comment and got the axe. A job is not a freedom awarded to American citizens. You represent the company at all times and they have the right to take action based on your actions or comments.
