Why can’t we license speech?

I see too many of my conservative FRiends using the Free Speech / First Amendment analogy, and saying (sarcastically) that we should regulate that right like the Second Amendment is regulated.

There's a huge problem with that: The left WANTS TO DO EXACTLY THAT. The internet power-grab is all about creating 'hate speech' laws that allow the government to prosecute, seize computers, and deny access to those who commit the offense of Free Speech. 'Hate speech', of course, will be any criticism of homosexuals, muslims, or government excess and control.
