    Nowhere in any writings about free speech does it mention that you are free from consequences.

    Edit: american free spech has limits, it really only protects you when criticizing the government. As with most governments that enshrined free speech.

    Also thats a hell of a whataboutism.

      “Free speech only when talking about the government” is very different from “free speech”.

        Yeah, and people point to that when they talk about free speech and miss the point where they never said you are completely free of consequences.

        Try again. Seriously, you sound like a high school student who clued in half way through the class.
