Annotation: Weinstein (constitutional law, Arizona State U.) argues against the radical claim that the First Amendment is oppressive, yet concedes that the free speech doctrine sometimes fails to adequately protect women and minorities. He also reviews the case for permitting broad hate speech and pornography bans, and scientific studies on the harm caused by pornography and their critics.
