You know, if you bring up the First Amendment in US, people usually stop listening. I haven't seen it brought up in court, though. But even in court. Unless of course there's something exceptional and sound in a strict sense about your argument (off the top of my head "I was born on the Moon. Because everybody who has ever walked on the Moon, and the only military on the Moon, were American, and the only country with a human presence on the moon, was America, therefore it is part of America, therefore I was born in America, and am therefore an American citizen." Suppose that's the truth, you were born on the Moon, and you say just what I wrote, and you believe it, and you mean it, oh man. American courts will, yeah, they'll really sympathize with you, and then yes, they will accept "freedom of speech" as an argument.
