Amendment I:
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.
It doesn't look like a "creeping destruction" of the First Amendment to me. It looks like a total repeal of the First Amendment. The "Free Speech Zones" are an example of "creeping destruction".
But this one is short and simple and gets right to the Point. It restricts free Speech.
