She had a stupid question at the end of her comment. The men who wrote, signed and understood the Constitution accepted that obscenities, slander and some other kinds of speech were not protected.

People who think the intent of the First Amendment gives protection to obscenity and porn have wrongly calibrated moral compasses.

So the first amendment only protects the kinds of free speech that you approve of? Gee, I wish they had written that into the Constitution.
