“The First Amendment doesn’t protect the free speech of people who disagree with me.”

Yes, well, there's the rub.

There. Fixed it.
At least that is what the earthly founders intended.
What really HAPPENS, is entirely at the mercy of God. We especially are not in an advantageous position to force others to do what God would prefer, if we ourselves are not addressing our own lives to such ends.
“Common sense” speech control.
The next logical step after “common sense” gun control.
