the concept of "yelling fire in a movie theater" is that, if your words are specifically meant to have consequences, and then they do, you are responsible for those consequences.
"I hate niggers" - meh, whatever, doesn't mean a thing.
"Niggers should die." - okay, getting touchy.
"Everyone should get their guns and go shoot a nigger immediately." - Officially illegal. Even if no one does it, you are now actively trying to cause others to break the law.
twitter.. lol. Last I heard they were having massive issues
@Misomania when massive media sites all ban the same groups despite not being linked financially, that is proof of control
There is even more context to it then that, if you're saying that to a crowd, yes. Illegal.
If you're saying it to one friend, probably not illegal
“I do not want to see a negro man walk to the polls and vote on who should handle my tax money, while I myself cannot vote at all…When there is not enough religion in the pulpit to organize a crusade against sin; nor justice in the court house to promptly punish crime; nor manhood enough in the nation to put a sheltering arm about innocence and virtue—-if it needs lynching to protect woman’s dearest possession from the ravening human beasts—-then I say lynch, a thousand times a week if necessary.” - Rebecca Ann Latimer Felton, first woman to serve in the senate
Sounds like extreme rhetoric to me but idfk
What if you add the stipulation, "...as God commands."
@Redneo those were the same women that were locking doors and burning buildings with people inside them as well.. the suffragatte terrorists that eventually became modern day feminism
@taekahn Discussing the relevence of screaming it at a crowd, such as the "yell fire in a crowded theater" comparison.
If you're saying it to a friend... well, that's... urgh, a whole different can of worms and not going to get into that right now.
@Misomania yeah
Actually joking about things in private is different
I was off smashing some squids
and boy are my wrists tired
joking means something different entirely too
Yeah but hey
planned parenthoods beginnings are even worse
When I was heavily involved in conspiracy speculation on Google+, I just prefaced saying it was parody
Thus my hands are clean
what is funny is that women didn't want the right to vote, because it entailed the responsibility to serve in the military at the time in the draft.... but women never did have to serve while men STILL do
Just say it was a joke. But I never incited violence
Reasonable people would assume that the act of yelling "FIRE" in a crowded place would cause some degree of panic and mass movement of people, which is highly likely to cause some kind of injury and, specifically in the theater case, also cause secondary damage to the business you are yelling it at.
This means, at very least, any injuries from the people in a panic, and all lost revenue of the theater, is 100% your fault.
that needs to be reversed
smash the state!
women have the right to vote, men bet their lives to buy it
Bet their lives?
I'm not following
the draft, you sign an agreement at 18 as a male in the USA
Oh
"agreement"
Right
haha, yes
@Misomania women COULD vote long before 1920, it just wasnt federally guranteed.
if there is a war you will serve, and maybe die in some godforsaken land or you will lose the right to vote or even drive
I totally "agreed" that I want to go to war in Iraq if they didn't find enough oil, under the pretense of WMDs.
Often under similar conditions as men with the exception that they couldnt be drafted
women just get that right by virtue of birth
Imagine if women had to sign up for a draft. They'd be even more leftist than before
but muh equal rights!
