Limits to free speech were constitutional during national emergencies.
Technically, the U.S. shouldn't have limitation on free speech. It's unconstitutional, so therefore illegal and an obstruction of justice to limit free speech. But that's the world we live in nowadays and the cost for the so-called "American dream" we are living...
The only businesses protected by the US Constitution are religion and free speech.
First amendment protects free speech. College students in the 1960's were shocked at social injustices in the US and spoke out.

Freedom of Speech protects your rights to free speech.
The US Supreme Court has traditionally interpreted freedom of speech and of the press very broadly, and has usually overturned laws or lower court decisions which might have a "chilling effect" on free speech. The traditional examples of where laws curbing freedom of speech might be allowed are that it is reasonable to prohibit someone from shouting "fire" in a crowded theatre, and that speech that is likely to incite violence is not necessarily protected. (Speech that is likely to incite protest, on the other hand, is protected.)
Not in the US . . . we allegedly have a law protecting our use of free speech.
