    First sentence on the Wiki and on the ACLU page. Go back to Reddit if you’re going to be ignorant and insult people.

      While you are free to say what you want, you don’t have the freedom from consequences of what you say, except from being critical of the government. I think that’s the point he was trying to make, but he wasn’t very articulate about it.

      But there still are limited restriction, for example you can’t talk about (or even look at) any classified information you come across. And whistle blowing has become all but illegal.
