You have the right to free speech - and you will not be prosecuted, fined, or put into prison: deportation isn't prison.
Alien visitors are not entitled to the spoils of citizenship - what is citizenship, otherwise?

Oh damn, what a nice loophole you found there, deporting them to a gulag in El Salvador isn't technically imprisonment in some twisted legal semantics game... To every other functioning mature democracy it's imprisonment.
Except voting, firearms ownership, the ability to work, etc. What else? (* sans LPR status - they're not 'rights' if someone can take them away, though.)
I love how "behave or go home" now equals "imprisonment."
Please keep espousing this nonsense: 2028 will be fun.
Those are further regulated in other laws, freedom of speech is clearly defined in your Constitution to be unregulated by any laws the government shall pass.
You're saying that is completely fine for the US government to regulate speech of non-citizens, rather surprising to see an American spouting this position but glad to see you clearly stand for it, ironic though it's quite anti-American to believe speech can be curtailed by the government when it fits your wants :)

You seem to be too compromised ideologically to have any rational discussion around this topic. Sad to see Americans subscribing to anti-freedom ideology whole-heartedly but it seems to be the way in 2025.
Not very fun to watch, just quite sad to see that even on this corner of the internet where one expects more leveled discourse to have gone this way.
I hope our little pushback against deporting random legally present gay bakers to the foreign gulag doesn't force you to support Trump's 2028 22nd amendment violation.
I was a tourist in the US and got a state ID card. In Walmart I got a photo holding an assault rifle because I was stunned. The guy said with my state ID card I could buy it right then and as much ammo as I wanted.
They won’t give a state ID if a tourist is on the I94 90 day visa waiver.
Where in the US Constitution do you believe this is stipulated?
> democracy
The USA is not a democracy. The USA is a larger republic of a union of republics.
"The USA is a democracy" is a perfectly valid and correct statement. "No, it's a republic" is kind of a nonsensical retort, and I'm not sure how it got so popular.
There literally are no democracies which do not have representative elements, and "constitutional republic" and "constitutional monarchy" are concepts that are both perfectly compatible with the separate concept of democracy.
Democracy is a system for choosing government representation, republic is a "res publica" or a "thing of the people" where political power is bestowed upon the people by representatives, they are two sides of keeping a democratic republic.
If the USA isn't democratic but a republic then you don't select your representatives through voting, you can have representatives selected for you, and I don't believe that's the current system of government selection in place, is it?
Got it, so because Americans have the right to free speech, everyone is entitled to be in the United States so that they can be heard? Get real.
Visitors have the right to free speech without imprisonment: the United States has the right to revoke visas for any or no reason at all. Visas are a privilege.
