The German model is not substantially different from the US model, US freedom of speech is mostly lip service and there are plenty of related laws that can and will be applied against free speech in the US such as laws against terrorism and laws against obscenity. One major difference is that Nazis are more protected in the US than in many other countries. This has purely historical reasons, though. Mainland US was never occupied by Nazis, so consequently it also was never "de-nazified".
However, if you're a communist or an ISIS sympathizer or want to publicly display some nipples you won't necessarily have more free speech in the US than in Germany.
