it doesn't. Read the first amendment carefully. People is only used in one specific part, the bulk is about limiting what the lawmakers can do. free speech has no reference to "people"

All amendments are about what limiting lawmakers can do. Even the second.

People is only used in one specific part… ok?

How does that square your idea of 1A with SCOTUS being very recently clear on 2A not immediately applying to non-citizens?

Unfortunately this SCOTUS is not comprised of those who the founders intended would sit on it.
