None. But it is coming if Washington has its way. They see Talk Radio and Christian Radio a threat. The Fairness Doctrine has been voted down but the bill has a new name and it will probably pass in some form.

Technically ex-convicts lose certain rights such as voting. I think this is the closest we have to losing their freedom of speech.

In Germany we have only one law that prohibits freedom of speech, and that is to publicly deny that the Holocaust occurred or that it was the Jews own fault or any other Neo-Nazi activity like wearing Swastikas etc..
It has to be said publicly and the burden of proof is on the Government, so not all cases were prosecuted successfully.
That is to my mind the only time Freedom of Speech should be restricted and only in Germany. This is part of how we deal with our history in order to make sure that the events are always portrait accurately for the next centuries to come.

Otherwise, all the examples you have given above have the right to free speech.

The whole point of freedom of speech is that everyone has it, if I wanted to stifle anyone's freedom of speech, then I wouldn't truly believe in it.
