Difficult to take these types of assertions seriously at a time when the US government is purging all sorts of scientific, historical and statistical information from government websites because the latest person in charge and his minions don't like it, or find it more convenient to not have deal with what it means. As a European I see nothing to envy in what the US currently hold up as supposed free speech.
