"The First Amendment as I understand it, refers to POLITICAL speech."

Well it just says "speech." But the issue here is distribution of speech, I'm not sure that's the same thing. If it is then it will have widespread consequences.

Of course, it's not really speech if no one else hears (reads) it. Which reminds me of that classic, philosophical question: If a man says something in a forest and there's no woman around to hear him, is he still wrong? Hehe.
