"... and how far the limits of free speech stretch."

If you truly believe in free speech, then the stretch all the way up to causing someone immediate harm, like yelling "Fire" in a crowded theater, causing a riot that can hurt people, or very specifically threatening a person, like saying "I will kill so-and-so on this day and time at this location with this weapon". That's about when it's no longer free speech.

Calling the president of a country a zoophile should be protected speech because your hurt feelings don't amount to censoring a person in another country that's under different laws. If that president can't take that little insult, they shouldn't be a leader.
