I would think that the chairman of a Philosophy Dept might understand that people in any country can go to a public park, mount a soap box and shout "I love my government!"

You don't need the First Amendment to make that possible.

The importance of being able to mount a soap box and declare "I don't trust my government" is precisely why the Founders gave us Freedom of Speech as the very first item on our Bill of Rights.

Sheesh.

But, they own the soapbox.
