It doesn't really say much for the "right of free speech" in your country if someone cannot express an unpopular opinion without being physically assaulted as a consequence, does it? It's
unpopular opinions that people need to know that they
can express without the risk of assault, prosecution, or other consequences. Popular opinions don't need protection.
If what you say is actually true, then I'd be deeply concerned about what rights a person actually has to free speech in your country.
