Was it so demonstrated? I'm not aware of any particular psychological disorder that has "race-based threats" as a symptom, although I think racism is itself a form of mental illness. As far as I know, DSM-IV disagrees with me on that point so far.
As far as psychological maladies go in general, however, an employer can remove an employee from the workplace if the nature of the disorder is such that it causes problems with other employees. The employee would be covered by disability insurance, and while he/she might not be fired for it, they could certainly be put on an indeterminate sick-leave.
