"Like it or not it is free speech in action, and no way anyone should be punished for exercising their right to free speech."

The First Amendment protects from government sanction for expressing an opinion the government disapproves of. However your employers is free to terminate, fine or otherwise punish you for expressing an opinion it finds offensive.
