That makes NBC “News” yet all the Twitter threats to kill Romney?
Where’s NBC calling out loud for the investigations?
Denise took the Baracky Road..
never was nor ever will be on facebook
There goes The First Amendment.I guess The Second Amendment is next?I’m still suffering from SHOCK from the election results!Apparently,there are over 50-million Americans who could give a Rat’s A** for the rights guaranteed them by The US Constitution!!!
why do people think nothing will happen to them if they post things under their own name.
Facebook is not a real good thing to belong to....and if you must, work up a good alias.
Interesting responses in the comments section...
Free Speech has consequences kind of comments.
Can and should a business have the authority to fire you for non-criminal actions taken off duty?
Essentially what some of those comments are saying is if you are involved with an activity outside of work, that they don’t agree with as a core value you can be fired.
How many of us can be fired for posting on the extremist site known as Free Republic?
Ditto that. I don’t care what people’s social status is each day nor do I think they care that a leaf fell in my yard.
Land of the Free? Maybe, years ago.
How much of a short step is it from this to “Slander of
the State” and a ten year term?

Look. I’m as pissed off as anyone about the election (well, mostly the Senate. A POTUS Romney would have killed conservatism. At least we are on life support). But I don’t care who it is, there is no place for these kinds of comments against anyone. I’d have fired her.
And the First Amendment doesn’t apply. It only applies to State action. This is a private Corp.
Be angry. Comment, argue and scream ... but threats and this (hers) reaction is childish and demeans conservatism.
Where in the First Amendment does it prevent an employer from firing someone?
Yet ANOTHER job loss caused by 0bama? *SNORT*
We're so on the flippin’ edge of disaster...
Act like an idiot, you may get fired. The first amendment has nothing to do with this, and it’s embarrassing to read FReepers thinking it does.
Good answer to anyone critical of FR for censorship, rules, guidelines, banning, etc. It's always the owner's prerogative.
The edge was so sharp we don't yet realize we've already been beheaded. Just don't try to turn your head. ;>
And here I thought only birds tweeted. ;>
So let’s say you go to a Romney political rally and your boss finds out...fires you...you’re ok with that?
I know some FReeper business owners are looking to fire the 0bamabots working for them ...that’s ok too?
Used to be you left your private life at the door and your work life at the door on the way out.
What a councidence.. I hope someone takes out NBC.
They are a treasonous, terrorist supporting organization and should be treated as such.
