        Having a "First Amendment zone" is pretty much just a way of saying "We don't actually believe in the First Amendment".

        ludicrous that First Amendment rights are now subject to zoning by politicos. What a time to be alive.

        Common practice for many years. Not great, but not exclusive to the Republicans or their conventions. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_speech_zone#History …

        Wish I could say I was shocked. They did this in 2004 as well. Don't remember if '08 or '12 did too, but probably.

        It was actually just outside the free speech zones but it still didn't matter. LAPD still shot at the crowd.
