Companies have standards and the right to enforce them. If people are willing to take a stand even when it means they might lose their job over it... They knew the consequences.

It's not as though they were whistleblowers against some shady practice Google is doing.

I do wonder though if they had not been wearing Arab dress and sitting peacefully outside of the building would they have been fired? Peaceful protest is allowed under the Constitution.

True. But if I read the reports correctly I think there was something in their employee packets (those things most no one reads) that talked about the type of thing they did.
