Amendment I: Congress shall make no law...abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances...unless there's a trade summit in town, in that case we're going to send a battalion of riot police to kick your ass.

Free speech doesn't allow you to block roads, damage property, menace the locals or assist those who are doing these things. These morons are perfectly free to publish their idiocy on the net or, if they can find publishers, in bookstores. They can hold public meetings if they can find a venue.
But when they make trouble like this, the cops should break heads.

The peacably to assemble part of the 1st Amendment is why the cops are out in force .The black block/anarchists aren't interested in peacable assembly & go to these little get togethers expressly to cause trouble .Trouble being defined as firebombing police cars, looting stores destroying other peoples property commiting various acts of vandalism,arson & street violence
