Ok, in the US you're also prohibited from obscene speech, which is, according to Miller v. California, expression that '(1) "the average person, applying contemporary community standards, would find that the [subject or work in question], taken as a whole, appeals to the prurient interest" and (2) "depicts or describes, in a patently offensive way, contemporary community standards, sexual conduct defined by the applicable state law" and (3) "the work, taken as a whole, lacks serious literary, artistic, political, or scientific value"'. There's no threat of violence here, just community standards that are bother by your artwork, poem, song lyrics or whatnot. Since this is clearly a restriction on your freedom of speech, you clearly have zero freedom of expression in the U.S.
