In principle, in a free country, you should be able to. But you can't, so it's not actually free.

How far does that freedom to do what you please extend? Am I not actually free because I can't beat up people I disagree with? Personally I feel the freedom to disagree without the threat of violence is more important.

There is freedom to, and there is freedom from. Don't undervalue freedom from.

You've confused freedom with anarchy. By your logic you should be able to murder anyone you please or else it's not a free country.
