Crossword Genius

Free in general (2,5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

at large

This clue is a double definition.

'free' is the first definition.
(similar in meaning)

'in general' is the second definition.
(synonyms)

(Other definitions for at large that I've seen before include "Escaped; as a whole" , "Not confined, like escaped prisoner" , "generally" , "Free like escaped convict" , "On the loose, at liberty" .)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail.
