Beverly Hills Suites [in Windsor Locks, Conn], according to court documents, hosted loud, lurid, alcohol-fueled affairs featuring public sex, fights and, once, a hip-hop concert by renowned performer Ludacris. And now, after a long legal battle, a federal court ruled last week the sex parties are not protected by the Constitution. âThe First Amendment claims fail because the swingersâ activity documented in the recordânamely, participating in sexual encounters with others in the hotelâs barâis not protected by the First Amendment,â Judge Michael P. Shea of the U.S. District Court in Connecticut ruled....
He noted [that an] undercover officer witnessed âoral sex acts in the barroom,â among other lewd acts, while a photographer snapped pictures. âThe sexual activity the Liquor Control agents described observing in the Hotel bar on November 8, 2008âŠ. is not constitutionally protected speech,â Shea wrote.
So talking with your mouth full isn't protected under the First Amendment. Please make a note of it.
