Does the freedom to talk back to a cop as a black person and not be shot count (or segregation for that matter)? Does the absence of stupid practices like the "Parent Advisory" stickers on CDs and the extreme rating of movies count? Does it count if those countries people can express themselves freely on TV, even swear or show nudity, etc, and the nation doesn't go bezerk because some singer had a nip slip? Including gag orders and the like in the consideration or not? Does McCarthyism? How about people not losing their job because a, snail mail or today internet, mob reacted to something they said in a totally different outlet and reached their employees?

All, or almost all, Western European countries have freedom of speech and freedom of the press in their law and/or constitution.

In any case, all of these are beside the point. The point wasn't about what "freedom of speech" laws the state deemed ok to give, but what freedom of speech is (or should be).
