[blindlaw] Never knew this case existed

[Rod Alcidonis]

I found this in my bar review prep.
"It is firmly established that solicitation of funds for charitable or 
political causes is speech protected by the First Amendment. [Riley v. 
National Federation of the Blind of North Carolina, Inc., 487 U.S. 781 
(1988)."

Good way to remember the rule.
