Rankin v. McPherson, 107 S. Ct. 2891 (1987)

Part 1

The case between Rankin V. McPherson involves a clerical worker (Ardith McPherson) who worked for a Texas constable (Walter Rankin) and was fired after admitting to having told a co-employee about a controversial remark during a personal conversation after John Hinckley Jr. assassination attempt on Reagan failed. McPherson sued in federal court, contending that Rankin violated her First Amendment rights for terminating her for a personal remark on a matter of public concern, even though her performance in office was not affected. If I were the judge, I would have ruled in favor of McPherson since the speech was a matter of public concern and the state’s interest.

Part 2

Yes, I found the same result as the Supreme Court, which ruled that a Texas constable violated the First Amendment rights of a clerical employee when he dismissed her for an intemperate remark, she made about President Ronald Reagan during a personal conversation in a workplace. According to the court considerations, engaging the weight and seriousness of speech requires a balance between the interests of the employee, as a citizen, in commenting upon matters of public concern. The court’s reasoning resonates with my ruling opinion, and I believe this is the correct ruling.
