First Amendment right to free speech or the Second Amendment right to bear arms during protests

Neither the First Amendment right to free speech nor the Second Amendment right to bear arms are absolute rights.

In other words, the government can place certain restrictions on each right. For example, the government can make it a crime if someone incites actions that would harm others, such as falsely yelling “fire” in a crowded theater.

Also, for example, the government can impose restrictions on the sale of guns to, and the possession of guns by, felons.

May a government impose restrictions on either the First Amendment right to free speech or the Second Amendment right to bear arms during protests like we saw this summer after the killing of George Floyd? That’s the main subject of our Facebook Live event.
