Freedom of speech does not mean freedom to harass others.

Yep..need to highlight the differences between saying "we need to be aware that this could be a false flag operation by Democrats to condition American citizens to accept oppressive gun control" and "(specific) people took money from George Soros to fake having a child and fake having them die in a fake school shooting because they hate America and want to make everyone slaves. We used to kill people like that, people who did what (specific person) did" over and over on nationally accessible broadcasts. Roughly paraphrased AJ's stance there, but you get the point.
