    There's an example right there in my post. The USA's first amdendmend reads:

    "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances."

    It would mean that a national government wouldn't be able to outlaw the qu'ran for example, or that the German ban on swatsikas and whatnot would have to be lifted.

    ...wich is perfectly okay with me. But since Wilders wants to ban the Qu'ran and keep Mein Kampf permenantly out of circulation, he's an incredible dumbass and/or a hypocrite to have suggested anything of the sort. PVV politicians feel perfectly okay with all sorts of bans and restrictions on freedom as long as they don't affect them personally.
