Are you saying that the freedom of speech gives you the right to say whatever you want? It doesn't. There are caveats to the first amendment that deal with things like reputation. Racial slurs, and derogatory remarks have the capacity to weaken the reputation of entire subsects of society on a cultural level. Bigotry and dispiriting speech are not a constitutional right afforded to you by the bill of rights.
