And yet, given the power... you create the monster. The First Amendment doesn't read "shall make no law (...) abridging the freedom of speech... except for XYZ." If you do, you end up with a democracy... two wolves and a sheep deciding what to have for dinner. Mob rule. The majority can overthrow the rights of the minority.
