There is no paradox. You either support the right of everybody to peacefully assemble or you do not and if you do not, you don't support freedom of speech.

  If those assembled people are armed and dressed for fighting, must I support them to be considered a supporter of freedom of speech?

    Why did you purposefully ignore “peaceful assembly”?

    Of course not and we don't in the US as a matter of fact. In LA they have gang-injunctions, where part of the injunction is that you can't even be near people of the same gang at all even if there is no criminal behavior afoot. "The 4–3 ruling, overturning a Court of Appeal decision, upheld a San Jose injunction that barred the gang members from "standing, sitting, walking, driving, gathering or appearing anywhere in public view" with each other in a four-block radius. "Liberty unrestrained is an invitation to anarchy," Justice Janice Rogers Brown(appointed by Bush)" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gang_injunction https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gang_injunction
