    Freedom of speech is a cultural and institutional phenomenon, which happens to be mentioned by the US Bill of Rights.

    It is not a term which refers to the US amendment, any more than “peaceably assemble” or “levy taxes” or “quartering of troops” are references to parts of the US Constitution.
