Actually, it IS your First Amendment right. Does the name Fred Phelps mean anything to you? The Kansas preacher that goes to gay funerals with signs chanting "God Hates Fags"? He's not arrested. Because he's within his First Amendment rights.
To say that, yes. To violate my rights with his screaming? NO. Hell no.
Or how about when the KKK marches on the statehouse when there's a debate about the Confederate flag? They're not arrested. They're within their First Amendment rights.
As long as its an orderly assembly and not screwing up traffic and causing folks to have to leave work/home. Sure.
So, yes you COULD wear those shirts. You wouldn't be arrested. You'd probably just get the crap kicked out of you. So I wouldn't advise wearing them on the street. It's just not a smart thing to do.
Agreed.
Look, when are you conservatives going to learn that just because it offends YOU doesn't make it against the First Amendment? Let me put it in simpler terms. For the same reason this kid can wear this shirt, someone else can wear a shirt with Bible verses on it. If one goes, the other goes. So, thank your lucky stars that the judge allows the shirt.
In your first sentence you are completely correct, except this has nothing to do with Lib vs. Conserv. Does your invoking a 'right' allow you to violate one of mine? If so, how do you get that to balance.
You have a right to gather and protest. Does that give you the right to show up on my street and stand in front my house during your protest? Not if it violates my right to peace and quite it doesn't.
How do you work that balance?
Wow, I was under the impression that HS was for expressing yourself and being an individual, and college was for getting drunk and getting chicks and (if you were lucky) getting drunk chicks.

I think college is both!
