Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't that kind of like the government saying; "We're restricting your ability to freely assemble in order to protect your freedom to assemble?"
a so-called "Free Speech Zone" is definately a violation of the 1st Amendment...

Tuning Spork, I see by your avatar that you live in New England, which is a part of the USA.
If you do not know by now what Constitutionally protected liberties you have lost, and if you demand that others enumerate them for you, then you are simply being provocative, or as staggeringly uninformed as you were when they were nullified by this administration.
