restrict the freedom of assembly.
Explanation: In Edwards v. South Carolina (372 U.S. 229, 1963) the Supreme Court held that convicting and dispersing peaceful marchers protesting racial segregation violated their First Amendment right to assemble (applied to the states through the Fourteenth Amendment), so states cannot unduly restrict peaceful protests.
