My point is that you stated in your post that your speech was not "free" in a homeowner's association. That is untrue. Your speech is just as free there as anywhere. However, like anywhere else, sometimes you have to fight to retain that right from those that would try to suppress it.

Please reread the post. Free speech refers to the gov't having a duty not to interfere with your expression. The homowners association does not have such as duty. Yours is a common misconception about free speech.
