On what are you basing this on?

[Congress shall make no law... abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble....[/quote]

Not seeing anything here about like minded groups and corporations.

I don't think you will find too many constitutional scholars that would link the terms "like minded" with "freedom of speech". Restricting freedom of speech to only like minded groups kinda goes against the intent don't it?
