[QUOTE="okwarren, post: 1988523, member: 19227"] No, the first amendment does NOT protect your right to say anything you want. [B][SIZE=5]CONGRESS[/SIZE][/B] shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances. There. That should settle any debates about it. It protects you from being silenced by Congress. It does not protect you from being arrested because you yelled "Fire!" or any other absurd situation in which you failed to STFU. [/QUOTE]
