A business decides to fire an employee for making racist comments on their social media post. Is the employee protected by the First Amendment? Yes or no and why?

The First Amendment; freedom of religion, freedom of speech, freedom of the press, freedom to assemble, freedom to petition the government.

Freedom of Speech isn't exactly obligated in this sentence, but it's hard to come-by since it's a business' own employee.

The employee might have not intertwined his/her work industry within the comment, but when hiring someone, what are the best qualities needed? Kind, hard-working, selfless, helpful, and devoted, right? Unfortunately, a good way to get sales is to make your company look better. You don't want a racist guy, who people know works at your company, to be spreading their beliefs around like wildfire and racially discriminate people.

The employee may have Freedom of Speech, but that does NOT mean they can be protected by it in this situation. Rules are obligational to the Amendments. Like in school, when they told you to be quiet and you wouldn't, what'd you get? A punishment. Rules are obligational across every community that can walk, talk, think, read and write.

So my answer is no. As I stated above, rules are obligational, and whoever set those rules has right to punish whoever breaks those rules. Freedom of Speech can't help you in every situation.  

Portugal and Spain became the early leaders in the Age of Exploration. Through the Treaty of Tordesillas the two countries agreed to divide up the New World. Spain got most of the Americas while Portugal got Brazil, India, and Asia. Spain sent over conquistadors to explore the Americas and to conquer the peoples there.
