Nonsense. Shouting "Fire" in a crowded theater when there is no fire can lead to many deaths in the immediate aftermath of the outburst, as reasonable people respond to a plausibly true warning of great danger. Reasonable people respond to a little band of loons on the sidewalk shouting "Death to Israel" by calmly continuing to go about their normal daily activities, ignoring the shouting loons, pooping pigeons, and old chewing gum that litter the sidewalk.

"Fire in a crowded theater"
"Death to Jews"
Both are designed to incite to violence, thus the 1st Amendment does not apply.
Still, IMO the city should let the anti-Semites protest, but without police protection. Let the local populace exercise their opinion as to the validity of the protester's views. Preferably with baseball bats.
