The first amendment gives you the right to stand in line and ask a question, but not to interrupt!! What about everyone else’s right to hear and speak?

Sorry, but my reading of the Constitution does not prohibit Free Speech at political rallies, near buses, outside of buildings, or any other place.

Obviously, in the interest of public safety, I agree with certain limitations, such as not shouting “fire” when there is none.

But the First Amendment is there, first and foremost, to protect the people from being silenced by politicians who would not want to have their “rallies interrupted” by the people.

You mean the First Amendment doesn’t allow you to protest a film by yelling “fire” inside a crowded theater? Who knew?

According to the source there was no interruption. Rudy did not attempt to speak. No one threw anything at him like the left does to Ann Coulter. No onr physically attacked the stage to force him away, as the left does frequently. It appears that you are against speech you disagree with
