Being fired from your job over things you said has nothing to do with the right to free speech. That right means the government won't punish you. It does not stop anyone else from punishing you.

Constitutional right to free speech? Yes. The overall philosophical concept of free speech? Less so.

Unless you think we were endowed by our Creator with certain unalienable Rights.

In which case the law is only there to enforce what we already own. And the concept of "Free Speech" goes past just laws.

Yes, some people misunderstand it. And others are too quick to "correct" them, even when their target is off.

Nobody is saying firing him was illegal.
