MFKER
The guarantee of freedom of speech and the press apply to government limits on your freedom, not your employer's limits. For example, if you work at Gimbel's department store, the government could not stop you from wearing a shirt that advertises for Macy's, but you r employer could. Essentially, because you are free to find another job, your employer can limit your activities in the workplace in ways that the government is not allowed.
Amendment 1 is the one that describes freedom of religion, speech, press, assembly, and petition.
After the fall of communism, many citizens find themselves happy to have their religious freedom back.
The first amendment to the U.S Constitution addresses speech and religion; the second amendment deals with the right to bear arms.
It is depends upon that you have citizenship of US or Not. There are different rules and responsibilities and duties for the permanent citizens of US and Working Citizens of US.

Exactly which countries are free? The united States of America, who started as a free country, now enslaves its citizens through high taxes, strips them of freedom of speech, religion, and much more through an ever increasing federal government (which controls the lives of the people). If you find a truly free country, please let me know because I'd love to live there.
The Founders of the United States believed there to be a natural inheritance of rights to all people. Some of those individual rights are: the right to assembly, freedom of the press, freedom of religion, freedom of speech and freedom from unreasonable search and seizures.
Martin Luther King used both simile and metaphor in his famous speech. The metaphor he used was "Let us not seek to satisfy our thirst for freedom by drinking from the cup of bitterness and hatred".
The speech choir piece "Freedom" can often be found in anthologies of poetry, drama, or performance pieces, particularly those focusing on themes of social justice and liberation. Additionally, it may be available through educational resources, online platforms that specialize in speech and performance literature, or in libraries that have collections dedicated to theatrical works. Checking with local schools or theater groups may also yield copies or performance rights.
The freedom of speech affects us in many ways. First off television shows like CNN and Jay Leno are pretty much people criticizing the work of our government. We are allowed to say whatever we want to say about anything! Most countries will execute their citizens if they find out about criticism. Check into the things that were happening in Egypt with their now former President in 2011.
1) Freedom of religion (the government cannot establish one or prevent you from practicing one)2) Freedom of the press (the government cannot tell the media what to print or not print)3) Freedom of speech (you can say what you want about the government)4) Peacefully Assemble (you can get people together to protest something as long as you do not become violent or threatening)5) Petition the Government for Redress (you can ask the government to make right something you feel is wrong)6) Taxation of the Press (the Government can tax newspapers)The above rights are technically not granted by the First Amendment. If you look closely you will not find the word "grant" anywhere in the First Amendment. You will however find the terms "shall make no", "prohibiting", and "abridging". All of these restrictive terms are directed at the government. The First Amendment amounts to restrictions that are placed on the government, not the granting of any rights.The reason that the First Amendment doesn't grant any rights is because all our rights belong to us and we have had our rights from the moment of our birth. Remember the "endowed by their Creator" part of the Declaration of Independence? What Jefferson was saying there is that each man is the possessor of their rights and they are not granted by any king or potentate.Thus the question becomes, what rights may the government restrict or even deny? The First Amendment and the rest of the Bill of Rights places restrictions on the government in regards to the certain enumerated rights that we already possess.
