well, the secret campaign the NEA and DNC have long waged to make sure the average American don't know diddly about the constitution sure seems to have borne fruit.
The 1stAm applies only to STATE infringements upon free speech, religion, association, and assembly.
If a private person or organization "X" chooses to exercise its power within its own bailiwick in a non-violent manner to limit or penalize the voiced opinions of someone else "Y" within "X"'s area of proprietary control, that is completely legal and not a "free speech" issue.
