  Free speech is the notion that you have the right to express your opinion
without restrictions, wherever you want and whenever you want. A "free
speech zone" in the US is a restriction put to certain protest events.
The restriction is that the protest must be performed within a well-defined
zone. Exercising your right to free speech out of that zone is illegal.
Which kind of makes the whole point of "free speech" quite moot.
