This is their professional speech, not their personal speech. Your employer has the absolute right to fire you if you use swear words in communique with your work email. That's not a violation, just like this isn't.

The federal government simply considers this unprofessional, and since they're applying the rule equally there's also no basis for a discrimination or wrongful termination suit.
