I agree. I wonder if the intention of the First Amendment was to allow for the free exchange of ideas to persuade in terms of public policy. There's nothing persuasive about pornography. But isn't it funny that where persuasiveness counts, like in front of abortion clinics, that speech is quelled?
I wonder if the intention of the First Amendment was to allow for the free exchange of ideas to persuade in terms of public policy. Well, the Constitution doesn't include any such limitation. You can try to say that it's "implied", but then you're using the same argument liberals use when they say the 2nd Amendment doesn't protect an individual right.
Excellent point on liberal free speech hypocrisy regarding abortion protestors, the same also applies to campaign finance "reform".
