Is freedom of speech a ticket to use profane and vulgar language?
Is profanity and vulgar language covered under freedom of speech?
Example; do individuals on a sidewalk in front of my home or in a city park in front of my home have the right to curse repeatedly in such a manner that I can hear them while I am in my yard or in side my house? I am a resident in the City of Syracuse, NY which is in the county of Onondaga. The commissioner of city parks has told me to call 911 and ask the 911 operator to dispatch an officer. When ever I do call 911 they often want to give me a civic lesson on the freedom of speech. Respectfully, David Lima |

No it is not protected. They can be fined or even arrested.

And local cities may have even stricter rules -- as we do here in TN.

Actually,
It depends on if it offends PUBLIC SENSIBILITIES, however since you are one, you need some Public. |
