No, only 22 according to http://www.nrtw.org/rtws.org - however, they don't
include Maryland, and it hasn't been updated since 2003, it seems.  I don't
think that you're describing a "right to work" state - it's something more
extreme - an "employer's rights" state.  "Right to work" just says that
nobody (almost) can be forced to join a union.

Actually there would not have to be an ethics clause. Maryland is a
right to work state so the employer can fire you at any time for any
reason. Aren't most states this way? Not that I get fired but I would
love to know where in the US it is different. I know in some European
countries (for instance) it is very different and almost impossible (or
at least financially difficult) to fire someone (Netherlands for
instance)

Yep.  If you can't say it to your boss' face, then you shouldn't be
writing it/doing it on company time.  If you ever read your employment
agreement, you'll see that they have the right to monitor anything and
everything you do online while at work.

Now if he was spouting off the same ignorant, profane stuff on this
list from home and he got canned because of THAT, then it'd be a
different story.  There'd have to be some sort of ethics clause in his
contract explicitly prohibiting that type of behavior (highly
unlikely).

In either case, I doubt we've heard the last of him.
