That's not entirely reasonable.  'Freedom of speech' requires that nobody
kill you, or slap you, or -- most centrally -- arrest you for what you
say; or stop you from saying it.  But it doesn't mean nobody can criticize
you for it.  Does 'freedom of the press' mean that nobody should bitch
about what a newspaper prints?
