That phrase does not make it "absolute" go yell fire in a crowded theater and see how "absolute" the 1st is.
We are not talking about the first because it does not say 'shall not be infringed' The Second Does. Why is it the only one that does?
That phrase means nothing about it being limited. All amendments have limits.
LMAO. NO they don't. What is the meaning of Shall NOT be infringed to you?
No, you are "absolutely" wrong. There is no prior restraint to yelling "fire" in a crowded theater. You may do so at your pleasure. If there is a fire, fine. If there isn't a fire, and no one harmed by what you say (they all look at you and laugh, or simply don't believe you), fine. If they believe you and leave the theatre, but no one is hurt or harmed, fine. If they believe you, and there is a stampede that injures someone, then you might be held liable for your action of yelling "fire." Biden got it wrong, too, as do most people who don't understand their freedoms.
Do it then, see what happens, it won't be what you think.
