Her tone and her message is objectionable as the indiscriminate killing of protesters by the police would be viewed as wrong and the police who took such action might be prosecuted.

But she has freedom of speech.

Could have used a better choice of words.

So posting that on facebook is wrong, yet a Democrat in Missouri went on Megyn Kelly’s show last night and said that if Wilson isn’t prosecuted that the riots we have seen til now will look like a picnic, well isn’t that a threat?

Well, far be it from me to defend indiscriminate killing.

But I will state my opinion that if massive civil war were to breakout all over the US, the winning side is most likely to be the one which indiscriminately kills children, women, old people, and the occasional healthy male. The losing side is likely to be the side which attempts to avoid collateral damage, carefully singling out only the uniformed, armed enemy combatants who are actively engaged in war-like actions.

“CNN affiliate KHOU reports that a man brought the offending post to the attention of the unnamed woman’s employer, Houston’s Memorial Hermann Southeast Hospital, after finding it “very racist.”

I don’t see it as racist. I imagine a lot of white people would have the same feelings if they saw hundreds of hate filled whites rioting and looting over a false issue.

Freedom of speech does not mean freedom from repercussions. I’d fire her to for being stupid.

It's against to falsely yell FIRE in a building.
We don't have COMPLETE freedom of speech. Only babies and crazy people have that.

You remember girls and boys, don’t write down your personal

thoughts, you hear. Government is watching, you, troublemakers.

( It’s odd she writes, wham, she’s out of work-that fast!)

I would have fired her also. Hire-fire at-will state here.

Reason number 1,001 I will never have anything to do with Facebook. People like myself who value privacy are a dying breed.

Facebook exists so people will have a place to do something stupid.

People put way too much personal stuff on Facebook. It’s the Internet folks, and once you put it out there you can’t get it back.

Nope. Not the issue here. The First Amendment prevents government from telling you what or what not to say -- this isn't government, this is an employer. Different ball game. Employers can fire employees for any reason or no reason, unless a contract or local law says otherwise.

Employers commonly check Facebook pages of prospective employees. It doesn’t surprise that the same is done for existing employees.

Fascism creeps slowly like a cat in the night.

The "protesters" (read looters)should be warned to go to their homes first, then shot if they fail to disperse; otherwise she had the right idea. (it is called "The Riot Act.")

She must be going through life with a bag over her head. I hear about people getting into trouble at work, school, with the law over facebook postings all the time. If you post material that could even be considered offensive to some, you might get into trouble. How could she be so dumb?

She was fired from the hospital that I was born in, her statement was harmless and a commonly worded type outburst about something happening states away.
