Free speech protects your expression, it doesn't protect you from the ramifications.

Edit:

Case in point: I am free to make my expression and you guys are free to downvoat me to oblivion. The problem occurs when systematic ramifications are enforced. The best ramification is social ostracization, the worst is arresting for hatespeech. You may hate what someone says but even though the evil hateful nazis speak mean things they may in fact be correct and the points they are protesting may need to be addressed.
