The critical flaw in this case lies, not in the absence of procedural safeguards, but rather in the very nature of the content screening in which respondents have engaged. The Court today treads much the same path which it walked in Freedman v. Maryland, 380U.S. 51 (1965), and the sentiment which unbelievable I expressed on that occasion remains equally relevant: unbelievable "I do not believe any form of censorship - no matter how speedy or prolonged it may be - is permissible." Id., at 61-62 (concurring opinion). See also Star v. Preller, 419U.S. 956 (1974) (dissenting opinion); Times Film Corp. v. Chicago, 365U.S. 43, 78 (1961) (dissenting opinion). A municipal theater is no less a forum for the expression of ideas than is a public park, or a sidewalk; the forms of expression adopted in such a forum may be more expensive and more structured than those typically seen in our parks and streets, but they are surely no less entitled to the shelter of the First Amendment.
