We understand the First Amendment (Amendment I) to the United States Constitution is part of the Bill of Rights and, as such, prohibits the making of any law respecting an establishment of religion, impeding the free exercise of religion, abridging the freedom of speech, infringing on the freedom of the press, etc., but when the allowance of free speech incites violence it should be banned.

“but when the allowance of free speech incites violence it should be banned.”
No... the violence should be banned. Or the people participating in the violence. It’s the violence that is the problem, not the free speech.
Suppose we said freedom of religion was OK except when it pissed the majority off... Then the religion should be banned.
