Warnings and unfair dismissals. - Fair Work Ombudsman.
It's best practice to give employees warnings in writing before ending their employment. An employer doesn't have to give an employee 3 warnings, or even 1 warning but an employer should give the employee a chance to fix any performance issues.
I thought he might get another chance if he made a sincere public apology. Since then he seems to have upped the anti and is completely unapologetic.
In any event, since when has the decent thing, let alone the Christian way, been to intentionally hurt people with hate speech? No matter what you think of their lifestyle. Good riddance.
