The Determined Assоciаtiоn оf Former Muslims (DAFM) begаn аdvertising in January that they planned to have a public demonstration in June at the city’s central park. The demonstration would include testimonials by people who left Islam, speeches by “victims of Islamic folk customs” like female genital mutilation and rape targeted at non-believers. The ads also announced that there would be a Quran burning. City officials were terrified that such a demonstration would result in mass rioting and violence from the city’s 3% Muslim population. And soon after the ads ran DAFM reported to the police that they had received dozens of death threats and had a bomb thrown through the window of their office. Thankfully the bomb did not explode. In February the City passed an ordinance that made it illegal to publicly burn a Quran for any reason, making the burning or conspiracy to burn punishable by a fine of up to $1,000.. They also passed an ordinance requiring any group seeking to have a demonstration at the city’s central park to apply for a permit and pay an application fee equal to the city’s estimate of the cost of police security for the demonstration. The ordinance provides no standards for the evaluation, but rather gives city officials discretion to determine the appropriate fee. Once again, demonstrating without a permit or conspiring to do so was made publishable by a $1,000 fine. DAFM applied for a permit but were told that the estimate for security for their demonstration would be $50,000, well beyond their ability to pay. When DAFM’s board voted to go ahead with the protest without a permit, and to go ahead with the Quran burning and other aspects of the planned demonstration, they were arrested and charged with conspiracy to violate the two new ordinances and fined $1,000 each. What First Amendment Constitutional arguments can be made for and against DAFM and the City?

Tо rаise revenue, Brоke City erected billbоаrds on the sides of аll government buildings and planned to sell the space for commercial advertising. A Broke City ordinance provided that any advertiser could rent the space, provided the activity or product advertised was legal and had “nothing to do with politics” because Broke City sought to “avoid controversy.”Octavia, the owner of a bookstore that specialized in political books, sought to lease a billboard on a Broke City building to place an ad. In addition to selling books, Octavia conducted daily reading and study groups in the store on various political philosophies. The proposed ad implored onlookers to come to the bookstore to study communism at the store at 6 p.m. nightly. The ad was rejected by Broke City officials.If Octavia files an appropriate suit against Broke City in federal district court asserting violation of her First Amendment rights, is she likely to prevail?
