Let me ask you this. If you were out with your buddies drinking and you said something racist, sexist, homophobic or xenophobic, should you automatically lose your job?
Do you also feel this deputy should not be hired by anyone from now on?
If he said this on the job, I'd be ok with him being fired. But he wasn't on the job, it appears as though he was at home off the clock.
I'm fearful of a society that would say you can't have a job ever due to something you said on your own private time.

I agree. This is a very slippery slope and it is easy to see the path linking political correctness to employment. It is one of the reasons I choose to stay anonymous on line in forums like this and refuse to have a face book account, etc.

Absolutely, when Isee some of these idiots engaging in political debates on their Facebook account I have to scratch my head. They are severely limiting their potential job prospects for the future, no matter which side of an issue they are on. But I suppose if they are living on the dole anyways they have nothing to lose.
What a leftist meme...congrats, you should get a good pat on the head to day...
Maybe get some extra points, show us conservatives these posts that defend white guys over racist comments...
Go ahead, it should be easy, unless of course it's just a leftist talking point that cannot be backed up....
I'll wait!
Do they think all sheriffs and sheriff deputies are conservative republicans?
Our County Sheriff is about as progressive as it gets and he is elected by a democrat majority in this county.
It would seem that liberals actually have a greater propensity to defend a racist than do conservatives.
