The Supreme Court has often determined that free speech is sacrosanct -- except, evidently, when it’s in the justices’ backyard. Bob speaks with New York Times Supreme Court correspondent, Adam Liptak, about the court's commitment to keeping protesters off its plaza.

In the case of 'Grace v Burger' (Plaintiff protester M.Grace v Supreme Court Justice W. Berger) a remarkable lawyer named S.Graber won in the supreme court, against the supreme court, in what seems to be the same issue, when Ms. Grace was (as it turned out) inappropriately arrested for protesting on the sidewalk in front of their courthouse.

How does the current issue substantially differ from this settled case law?
There is no such thing as "free speech" in the US, nor is there such thing as "justice" in the US. Having sued multiple times for the right to have free speech, and seeing our federal judges simply substitute my (or the government's)argument with their own fabrications, reducing "due process" to a farce, and "justice" to a travesty, I am fully authorized to say so. In fact, the experience caused me to found the Coalition Against Judicial Fraud, cajfr.org; and very apropos of this segment on interaction between justice and free speech, I recently posted a entry called "The Price of Injustice of Our Justice System" precisely on that subject: http://cajfr.org/blog/the-price-of-injustice-of-our-justice-system/
