You've gotta find the middle ground.

My middle ground:
"Congress 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."
That's all the gorram "middle ground" you're getting. Free Speech means free, period, the end. Grow a thicker skin, this is (or used to be, a hundred years ago) America. Any cop or politician who can't live with the 1st Amendment in all its' offensive, noisy, distracting glory needs a new job and a hard slap across the mouth.
And yes, the groundwork for this exercise in Reconstruction was laid by Clinton, among -many- others, every President going back to at least Johnson included.
