The sanctions and non clarity on what is free speech and what is not

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the first amendment, certain form of speech do not come under it and hence are not protected by the law which includes

fighting words or true threats.

The definition of these terms is hazy enough to have historically caused conflict over what is true threat and which words can be classified as fighting words and against whom.
