33. Yeah but to be fair...
going to a public event doesn't give you the right to disrupt it without consequence.

Yes people have the right to free speech, but excersizing your free speech specifically to impair the right of another to speak, I would say, entails the police, or event organizers to remove you. When they're doing that they're protecting the free speech rights, and the disruptor is the one trying to prevent that from happening.

You cant use a 'right' to stymie someone else's exact same 'right'.

You cant own a gun, and use it to prevent other people from owning a gun.
