I could support the same approach regarding the 1st... You know, a common sense restriction on people spouting opinions in public until at least 10 days after they know what they’re talking about.
I wonder how the court would feel about that?

I like this line of thinking. If it is okay to say you must be 18, 21, or other age (not stated in the 2nd amendment), or that you have to way 3 days or 10 or 30 days to exercise it, then how about the same for the 1st amendment. You want to speak out, write it down, wait 3, 10, or 30 days; oh, you’re not 21, sorry, just STFU.

Or protests, you know they are protected by the 1st. Those Russian bots with Michael Moore and CNN participating 4 days after the election would have had to wait 6 more days. Just think no more protesting at any event of the moment.
