Although freedom of speech is a fundamental right of every citizen and it is only in the law. But in reality, it is seen that if freedom of speech comes against the government or in favor of reality, then those people are harassed by the government. And most people cannot express freedom of speech and if they do, they have to stay in jail. Most of the opposition parties are victims of this. It is really sad that so many people are in jail in the United States.
I have a different view of freedom of speech to some, as I think we are all free to speak - there are just consequences for our speech. However, from the legal view, there should be a framework that defines acceptability, but that is no longer the case in the US.
