I'd change the part that says it's a living document that serves a guideline for politicians and ensures our rights because it certainly does not.
If I need to prove that I'm not a dangerous person and I'm capable of owning and carrying a gun in order to exercise my 2nd Amendment right, I think we should do the same for Free Speech. If you can prove that you have only the interests of the United States in mind and if you can prove you're not against Democracy and Capitalism, then you are allowed to speak freely.
What's the point of having freedom of speech if you're not allowed to use it to say anything that US wouldn't want you to? At that point it really seems like it ceases to be freedom of speech.
