Our legal system is invalid, here is the proof:

A judge has used freedom of speech to block the Federal Trade Commissions do-not-call list because it blocks some telemarketers but allows political and charity calls.

You can put up a no trespassing sign on your lawn, and it is legally binding if someone were to trespass. But you cannot on your phone, a private contract and account. If the judge’s definition of freedom of speech applies, then why do telemarketers have to take you off their list after you ask them directly to?

If it is a correct legal interpretation to say freedom of speech has to apply uniformly, and you cannot isolate one group, then why did federal judges during the Clinton administration limit protest on public property in front of abortion clinics, but allow a bunch of Green people can protest in front of an oil company, San Francisco streets or office building?
