"The real question is, where do your constitutional rights end? The answer is simple: They end at your employer's doorstep (or gate, or whatever)."

So you're saying that I can be denied employment based on my age, race, sex or religion. I don't think so.

No, that's not what I said. I said your constitutional rights end at your employer's doorstep. You have no right to free speech, bear arms, etc... at work.

Furthermore, employment isn't a constitutional right. The protections you allude to are statutory.

You can’t do those things, but it is not because of the Constitution it is because of federal laws passed.
