It is assumed that his speech about the freedom of the press, which he delivered in the courtyard of the Lower Austrian Landhaus in Vienna, contributed substantially to the outbreak of the March Revolution in Vienna in 1848. Was appointed President of the Vienna Security Committee and was a member of the Reichstag. After the revolution had been put down, F. became an exponent of revolutionary liberalism in his writings.
