'''Free speech''' is the right to express your opinions out loud, in public or private, in print, by mail, or online. It is essential to [[democracy]], and along with the [[Second Amendment|right to keep and bear arms]] is the greatest deterrent to [[tyranny]]. The [[United States]] is unique in protecting a full right of free political speech under the [[First Amendment]].
[[Leftists]] are the biggest opponents of free speech, as they demand [[liberal censorship]] of views they do not like, especially [[Christian]], [[patriot]], [[conservative]], [[libertarian]], or [[survivalist]]-[[prepper]] ones. Such views are often demonized in the [[liberal media]] with its [[media bias]]. Ironically, however, Leftists used free speech to orchestrate the French Revolution by publishing damaging lies against King Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette,<ref>''Demonic'' by Ann Coulter</ref> as well as ensure the promotion and domination of destructive ideologies such as Communism and Socialism during the Free Speech Movement of 1964.
Free speech is threatened by [[hate speech]] codes which define certain types of statements as [[hate crime]]s. While supposedly protecting vulnerable groups (such as "questioning gay teens") from verbal abuse, rules and laws provide no clear distinction between "hurtful" speech and simply expressing one's opinion. Religious people, accordingly, worry that hate crimes legislation in America will be used to stop preachers and others from saying out loud or in print that homosexuality is evil.
Not every form of expression is protected as free speech. For example, statements connected with unlawful conduct are typically illegal.
