The ACLU made it an issue, and made the arguments that swayed the Court. Of course, the Supreme Court is not irrelevant. But my comment was an aside on the ACLU.

Yes, refreshing myself on the details, I agree that it was a speech issue, as well.

Actually, the reasonable criterion seems to me to weigh the potential for the eruption of violence in a given circumstance against the authority's ability to provide police protection. I am not suggesting a "victim's veto", merely prudent concern, similar to that which establishes restrictions based on traffic and other mundane considerations.
