You can't claim freedom of speech when it disturbs other people's freedom of peace. You have the freedom to say whatever you like, but that doesn't mean that you have the right to FORCE your speech on other people.

Freedom of speech doesn't mean you have a right to be heard.

Your freedom ends when it encroaches on another person's freedoms. You cannot call another person 20 times in a day, and claim it's "freedom of speech". That's harassment. You have the right to say and think what you like, but you don't have the right to force other people to listen to it.

That's my understanding of freedom of speech.
