Do Americans know what freedom of speech actually means?

Even the most highly seated Americans are talking about. Freedom of speech means you can say anything you like. Yes, they warn of the consequences which could be harsh but that's not enough. To understand what it really means. 

When one is given the freedom to do something, what comes with it is the obligation not to do harm. Without that obligation, the freedom to do anything is meaningless. Both the freedom to do something and the obligation tied to it, inextricably go hand in hand.

But if you listen to the Americans on both sides, they're spouting these freedoms of speech with no attached obligations. 

Americans don't even know the meaning of freedom, isn't that curious?
