Discuss how protestors are protected and restricted by the First Amendment

What will be an ideal response?


The First Amendment protects protestors' right to speak out about issues and to gather peacefully, on public or quasi-public property, to demonstrate their causes. It restricts their ability to infringe on others' privacy rights, to interfere with public access to businesses, or to engage in any unlawful activity in support of their demonstration (such as vandalism, noise ordinances, harassment, or assault).
