[QUOTE="BMWMC, post: 1256962, member: 37461"] I do recognize employers have fired workers for there comments on Facebook and they are entitled to there negative reaction but much depends of the comments being made. Yet, people who don't fight for their rights loses them. Even the NLRB can not protect you from clearly threatening, defamatory, or other kinds of speech that courts have excluded. My back and forth with Hoaxster is not really an argument where we there is a lot of disagreement but one of clarification as to what is protected speech and what is not. Hoaxster would have people believe that ANY speech on ANY social media is NOT protected by 1st amendment rights and that's just not true. Again the NLRB ruling is very new and courts are still dealing with this new kind of censorship. I would expect more rulings will come. The [url]https://www.aclu.org/[/url] is actively bringing challenges to the courts on precisely this topic. "Do a search on Steve the UPS Guy and get back to us"...I tried but got a dead end.
