I don't see why not. Every small business owner sure has to watch what they do in public, since there are so many ways business can be driven away.

In a school board meeting not everyone is going to agree with a certain policy, or in this case a merger between two school districts. And simply because you don't side with the majority does not give the townspeople the power to drive you out of your job. That is why there are rules in place against discrimination: If
x number of townspeople don't like the black guy working at K-mart and they complain to the staff that they will take their business elsewhere unless that man is fired, that's too bad...there are laws against it.
Just replace "black man" with "dissenting woman" and tell me what makes this case any different.
