The first amendment will always protect your right to say what you will, but one should always be mindful that ones right to free speech usually ends about 3.5 inches away from the tip of the nose from those who disagree with what you are saying.
Thats an interesting statement. Does the first Amendment extend to Non-citizens (Foreigners and hostages held in US occupied Cuba)? If yes why dont we all have voting Rights in the USA?

There are limits on the 1st Amendment. I'm not sure where they are, but there are limits.
i love it when people start a pointless new topic to discuss something somebody posted in a topic they started instead of discussing it there

If there were limits I couldnt publish your secrets without being assassianated...

I'm not a legal scholar, but my understanding is that the rights enumerated in the Constitution only extend so long as they don't infringe on the rights of others. In other words, you're free to say whatever you want about the government, but you cannot make unwanted sexual advances towards a fellow co-worker. You can own a gun, but you can't go across the street and shoot your neighbor with it because you don't like his rose garden.

Although the First Amendment is based on the premise that all people have certain inalienable rights to freedom of speech, the rights laid out in the United States Constitution do not legally protect citizens of other countries, which is why non-citizens do not have the right to vote in U.S. elections. Prisoners of war, however, are granted certain rights under the Geneva Conventions.

That about covers it. You can piss and moan about stuff you have no right to complain about but do not dare yell fire in a dark crowded room.

The limit is 12 nautical miles. :)
If that were only the case - The Iranians and North Koreas would be smoking their own dope without US Presidential threats of Nuclear Strike.
Lets face facts. The US President can only Legitimatly criticise a foreign State if US Presidents are voted in by a Majority of the 6-7 billion people who live on Earth.
...and that was when I wrote a letter to the Washington Post suggesting that the US President should be elected by every Human on the face of the Earth...
More importantly it is the only way to test if the US President is the legitimate leader of the Democratic World. ;)

Correct Spelling is for people who care about accuracy. I'm surprised you focused on this rather than the Idea though. If Obama came out and Said the US President will be voted in at the Next election by a majority of the 6-7 billion people on Earth would you think 'Wow! We are a World Leader in Democracy! Let the bastards criticise the US now!' or would you be fearful of the Idea?

Why would it extend to non-citizens?
Those foreigners and "hostages" are under the geneva convention not the us constitution. The constitutional protections shouldn't apply to illegal aliens either despit what the federal judges think. It's for U.S. citizens only! How much simpler does it need to be stated?
The First Amendment is a limit on U.S. Government action against U.S. citizens. It's not an affirmative right.
And it also has nothing to do with the right to vote. We have other amendments for that.

It is as much the ambiguity of that that is important. If Federal Lawmakers think the Constitution applies to those Non Citizens - simply because the USA is prepared to 'govern them without representation in Parliament'. You dig your own grave.
Whoa dudes! Looks like this is the place to come for some far out shrooms and stuff....
