@Redneo it's a saying more then a literal quote. Just means don't intentionally create a false panic in the hopes of getting people hurt

@Sixer that about a crowded movie theater

Oh.

You would obviously summon an inferno upon invoking such a powerful fire spell.

Well I agree that incitement to violence or false panic shouldn't be allowed

Its funny, one thing the police can't (legally) do in the UK is order you out of your vehicle

Its the opposite here

They can order you into or out of your vehicle

But doesn't the media specialize in making false panics over non-issues?

Yes

Crimebodge is awesome though

But the media is run by the people controlling the government

that and trying to make everything about themselves

Media is propaganda. For better or worse

the death throes of a doomed media format trying to take everything else down with it?

No, they move to the next format

YouTube is becoming mainstream

Twitter as well

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

I agree @JustTom

@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

Still debated and shared info and ideas

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
