I'm not the one who ~~told~~ corrected you earlier, but ket me reiterate...
You are incorrect in your assumption that our "country," government, etc. censors our speech. Some people choose to self-censor and the government has nothing to do with that.
Also, you seem confused about what free speech (see: first amendment) actually means. This XKCD might help explain it to you.
The government does actually censor broadcast television and radio. I can’t remember why they’re allowed to.
