I did last night.
I made a sarcastic comment in public with multiple people in earshot. Taken literally and out of context, the words could be misinterpreted as an admission of criminal wrongdoing.
Later, someone pulled me aside and told me that I could get into a lot of trouble for saying it out loud like that.
And now it's got me thinking- what exactly are the boundaries of free speech?

I'd hate to have to run around watching my mouth 24/7 and not having a sense of humor. But these days I wonder what I could get in trouble for.
PS- joke was not related to 9/11 or terrorism.
