Re: 'Duck Dynasty' star Phil Robertson suspended by A&E
the civil rights act of 1964 does have something to say about employment, protected classes, and such.
If you are fired for a sharing a belief, and that belief is protected, then the issue gets slightly more murky then what you just painted.
The number of people bitching about freedom of speech is getting comical. Guess what, geniuses, free speech doesn't mean you're free from criticism or consequences. Duck Man wasn't arrested or fined for his speech. He exercised his free speech, and now his employer is exercising its own rights.
