The content of speech can *often* be regulated. Check with your employer, for instancet,

But wouldn't that be "private speech?" As you probably know there is a difference between public speech and private speech.

And as for checking with my employer....Naaa, don't have one of those and don't want one. Lol

In Schenk v. United States 1919

"The question in every case is whether the words used are used in such circumstances and are of such a nature as to create a clear and present danger that they will bring about the substantive evils that Congress has a right to prevent. It is a question of proximity and degree. "

What is the substantive evil that the government would like to protect us from in this matter?
