The contrary view expressed by Justice Borden’s concurring and dissenting opinion relies, in part, on the constitutional rights of employers to express their own political views. The defendant in the present case has articulated no such claim. In particular, unlike (he defendant in Redgrave v. Boston Symphony Orchestra, Inc., 855 F.2d 888 (1st Cir. 1988), cert. denied, 488 U.S. 1043, 109 S. Ct. 869, 102 L. Ed. 2d 993 (1989), the defendant in the present case has not alleged that statutory protection of appropriately limited expressions of points of view on matters of public concern by its employees would pose a threat to its economic or physical well-being.
