With the 45th Pick of the 2016 Draft: Alabama RB Derrick Henry

The title of this thread is one of them!

 

The VY thread has stayed on topic for all these years!

Wait... bad example...

 

He expressed his opinion on his personal social media account. So people are not allowed to have personal opinions outside of the workplace? They let Bromani Jones wear a Washington Caucasions shirt on their media platform and nothing happened to him. You know why? Because it fit their agenda.

 

If it wasn't publicly told... of course not. But these social media accounts are rarely private.

Businesses read what their employees say on these and there can be ramifications. Every business I've worked at and my friends have is this way.

If you are going to say or post something the company doesn't like... they can do what they want.

Illegal? Nope. Getting fired isn't always illegal, either.

 

So it's ok for them to take your First Amendment? No it's not. That's illegal.

 

Did he get arrested?

 

You First Amendment crusaders need to learn more about it.

It pertains to Government. Companies can and have fired people for less than what he did for YEARS. Know why? It's perfectly legal, most of the time.

 

It is freedom of speech. It isn't freedom of speech without consequence.

 

You're free to say what you want and not get arrested, you're not free to say what you want without any repercussions from your employer. Go walk up to your boss and cuss them out, you will be fired.

 

Not when you're out of the workplace.

Freedom of speech with consequence means there is no freedom of speech.
