Answer:

The third option: "A college student... in which he feels the national government needs improvement."

Step-by-step explanation:

All of the other options break the law according to the freedom of speech. People are allowed the freedom of speech, but of course we can't say whatever we want. The rest of them are illegal, while the third is just an opinion, which are protected under the freedom of speech.
