Ah, but there are limitations and regulations to freedom of speech, press, to bear arms.
I cannot go into a movie theater and yell FIRE and incite panic and possibly riotous behavior. I cannot slander/libel or legally copy someone else's works for profit. I cannot carry a handgun unless I have a CCW license and obey the laws. There are limitations on religion, also. I cannot have the 10 Commandments hung in a courthouse or in my office. I cannot have my child pray or talk about prayer in school. Yet they are rights none the less.
