    Not being allowed to bring something to a protest does not infringe on your first amendment rights at all

    Not being allowed to take a gun somewhere specific is already a thing, and thus does not infringe the second amendment

      I suppose we will have to see how the case goes. Bruen specifically prohibited broad restrictions on what a sensitive place can be. ‘Anywhere people are exercising 1st Amendment rights in public’ is almost certainly going to fail this test from Bruen.

        A firearm ban at protests would not qualify as a broad restriction. It is targeted towards a particular type of gathering where emotions can run hot, things can get violent quite easily, and the use of a firearm, even in an otherwise legitimate scenario, would cause a ton of collateral injuries or deaths via a crowd crush.
