For those scoring at home (and if so, why are you reading a blog?) that's "N-word" use protected speech, "retarded" crime against humanity. And using firearm comparisons again, it's the well-conceived Byron De La Beckwith school of analogies, classy.

So the First Amendment now means your business can’t fire salesmen, no matter how much they offend your customers?
