Your roundabout hint (?) at an attack on the First Amendment which guarantees freedom of association, freedom of speech, and freedom of the press, also guarantees freedom of religion. It is very unlikely Congress would ever repeal freedom of religion as expressed in the First Amendment. I do not mean to condescend, but given your willingness to protect people from violence by preventing them from assembling in the first place, it might be useful for you to think about why the Founding Fathers thought to compose the First Amendment using specifically these words: > Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.
