I'm not American. I chose to use American terms they have (from what I understand) the simplest definition in that it is considered absolute. Other countries have concessions for things like hate speech and other such matters (and yes, there is a lot of nuance to it). But my point was is that "free speech" is in regards to how the government treats you, not: "I can come to your business and treat you like shit and you have to sit there and take it."

EDIT: I just realized you were not responding to me... oops!
