The First Amendment is just hot air without the possibility of hot lead that the Second Amendment provides.

Yes, true, but just as dangerous for anti-American leftists. The fear of disclosure and education of the weaker-minded masses is a big fear of theirs. Ala the "new media" and talk radio. They would silence that force in America in a second if they could. Their miserable, ridiculous attempt to counter conservative, pro-American talk radio, was not what they really wanted to do. If you dig deep, you will find far-leftist efforts in the Congress to "muzzle" free conservative speech.
The First Amendment will remain under attack. Great example: McCain-Feingold so-called campaign finance reform. Major blow to First Amendment rights passed by the Congress and signed by the President (which, then, shocked me, but now it does not)....
The U.S. Constitution -- UNDER SEIGE!!!
