I gave examples. One example- locking one side of a debate behind a fence with their signs, one block or many blocks away from public figures they want to protest, is actionable. The ACLU will fight this. You suggested that is was ok to curtail freedom of speech because protestors at the WTO got out of hand. If you really think that, then you are not aware of the meaning for freedom of speech. It should not be given up for anything- not even for security, and certainly not because of a few rabble rousers. That makes no sense at all.
