What do you think of Google's Anti-Diversity Manifesto?

I've been following this story that last few days, about the google employee that went on a rant about how women are biologically inferior to woman in the tech space. While I disagree with everything that he wrote, I was thinking about whether or not it was handled properly (he ended up getting fired). I truly believe that he thought what he wrote was honest and correct, and that he didn't intend to hurt anyones feelings.

I guess I'm curious on what others think, not specifically on the subject matter (but feel free to add your opinions on that as well, although I feel a majority, if not all of us would agree that it was despicable), but rather do employees have the right to voice their opinions, however unpopular, on something that they are passionate about.
