The First Amendment relates to your right of free speech, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances.
However, this is not a free pass. While you've the right to post something online about how you don't like the Department of Motor Vehicles, if you criticize one of them while at the DMV, you may well be asked (made) to leave.
Likewise, discussions on the nature of liberty will not be allowed at airport security points. Or a lot of other places.
You should regard your "right" to criticize a government official as on a par with your "right" to bear arms. You, by a literal reading of the Constitution, have a "right" to do either, with no restrictions.
But you'd do well to exercise MUCH prudence.
