As long as there have been speeches, there have been hecklers. But is heckling actually protected by the First Amendment? And how should law enforcement treat it? Is it just as important as the speech it's trying to drown out? Or should the heckler go and get his own platform?
Americans' right to free speech is protected by the First Amendment — that's Civics 101. Understanding how it works in practice, though, can be a complicated task. That's why constitutional law professor Barry McDonald is here to answer Lou's (and your) questions about free speech. This is 'Legally Speaking.'
