First Amendment

I have always questioned the ways the first amendemnt worked, but now i am even more confused.  I understand that there are loop holes in every law and every freedom, but the first amendment seems to have many different perspectives to it.  Freedom of speech seems to have many limitations, and is that a good thing?

I think society has made freedom of speech gain so many limitations.  Norms have been created through the evolutions of life and people.  When norms are broken, and spoken about, it has gone to the point where freedom of speech is no longer completley true.  People have come up with sick and twisted ways that break norms of society, and become taboo.  When they are spoken about, people lash out and have very strong opinions against this. 

The rights of freedom of speech have been quite confusing in deciding what is allowed and what isnt.  It seems to have been thrusted into the hands of society in deciding the limitations in freedom of speech.
