As always with dictatorships everywhere, public dissent is not allowed.

How did this get through the House? Did they really think it was a good idea?

I am not finding the ‘no free speech’ part.

“And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling with terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand?... The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin's thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt! If...if...We didn't love freedom enough. And even more – we had no awareness of the real situation.... We purely and simply deserved everything that happened afterward.”

Well, this year the Supreme Court will take up this case: Wood v. Moss

Supreme Court to review whether agents violated rights of Bush protesters

'The Supreme Court will consider whether two Secret Service agents can be sued for allegedly hustling protesters out of earshot of a dining President George W. Bush while accommodating his supporters.

The incident took place in Jacksonville, Ore., where Bush made an impromptu decision to dine on Oct. 14, 2004. Two groups had assembled nearby: 200 to 300 people unhappy with the president joined together on the street and sidewalks immediately adjacent to the inn, while a group of Bush supporters gathered a block away.

But after the president decided to stay for a meal on the Jacksonville Inn’s patio, the protesters were moved to a location farther away, while the supporters stayed where they were. When the motorcade left, he drove past the supporters, but the protesters were not on the route.

Seven of them sued Secret Service agents Tim Wood and Rob Savage, saying the unequal treatment violated their free speech rights. Federal officials are generally exempt from being sued in their official capacities, unless they know the actions violate basic rights.'
