I have a question for everyone. My journalism professor (who is also chair of the department) told us in class on Friday that "free speech is regulated by time, place and manner". He used the example of the classroom. We, as students, could get up and dance on the tables and say whatever we felt like saying and that would technically qualify as free speech. But he, as the professor and authority in the room, could tell us to get out and we would have to obey or face consequences.
I still haven't completely processed this and figured out what it means and what I think so I wanted to ask you to help clarify.
What does the first amendments freedom of speech mean to you? Who owns freedom of speech?
