Are citizens allowed to use the first amendment to its full extent?

With the recent Black Lives Matter movement there have been many different occasions where people have not been able to use their first amendment right, or at least not every part of it. With there being six clauses in the First amendment, sometimes people haven't been allowed to use all of the clauses. Judges have prevented lawyers from wearing black lives matter apparel and accessories in court which is a violation of the speech clause. Local law enforcement also has been gearing up in combat gear which comes off as very aggressive to citizens. In some instances, law enforcement has been aggressive with peaceful protestors, which is abusing 2 clauses, the assembly clause and freedom of speech. Do the government and police officials realize they are not allowing citizens to use there first amendment right?
