The goal is to reduce network effects. As poetic as free speech is, the 1700s were a different time. Hard to SWAT a rando a town away let alone a country. Now a nation state can instigate localized terrorism. Thomas Jefferson understood laws and constitutions must change in step with human discovery. Scalia wrote laws are not open ended, and up for public romantic interpretation. To paraphrase both. Indeed many Founders wrote of the need for free speech in official political proceedings, never considering the privilege extending to the public. In public people were welcome to get a beating if they prefer to violate local order. Humans are biological animals first. Gentile by training.
