First off, they aren't taking American freedoms away, there have always been limitations on free speech. One of the biggest is threatening the president. You can voice your displeasure, you can say you absolutely hate and despise everything he has done while in office. But if you say something to the affect of "I'm going to kill the president." You're in trouble.
I knew a little asshole in school who everyone just hated. Well, one day this asshole went into a political chat room and just raised hell just trying to piss people off. Well, one of the things he said was, "I'm going to kill your precious president." Well, someone from that chatroom sent a transcript to the Secret Service. Not long after he had a Secret Service officer in his house.
The Secret Service takes ALL threats about the president's life seriously.

One day an Englishman, a Scotsman, and an Irishman walked into a pub together. They each bought a pint of Guinness. Just as they were about to enjoy their creamy beverage, three flies landed in each of their pints. The Englishman pushed his beer away in disgust. The Scotsman fished the fly out of his beer and continued drinking it, as if nothing had happened. The Irishman, too, picked the fly out of his drink but then held it out over the beer and yelled "SPIT IT OUT, SPIT IT OUT, YOU BASTARD!"
