This document appears to be a page (page 90) from a draft manuscript dated April 2, 2012. Written in the first person by a self-identified First Amendment lawyer (likely Alan Dershowitz given the House Oversight context), the text critiques the legal analogy of 'shouting fire in a crowded theater' derived from the 1917 case *Schenck v. United States*. The author argues that the analogy was improperly applied to political speech.
