It would probably be a lot easier if we made people speak proper English and know what they are talking about before they were allowed to say something, but we don't make them pass English 101 before allowing them free speech.
Actually it was not a Red Herring at all. Public safety issues have the same legal effect on "privileges" as they do "constitutional rights". Anyone with a 7th grade education on civics knows this.
Perhaps it would be easier if we educated people about the limits on "free speech" and many other "Constitutional rights" so they would know what they are talking about before they make statements like this.
