If I understand him right he's pointing out freedom of assembly is just as significant a right for Americans as Danish citizens.
I would go a step further and argue it is much more significant to American culture than Danish, and I feel my opinion carries at least some weight given I am a Danish person living in California.
I was trying to avoid making a comparative statement about the importance of freedom of assembly between cultures; I have no idea if freedom of assembly is important to Danish people!
But I suspect I obscured my meaning by trying to avoid making a statement about people I don't know.
