“Holmes said it doesn’t mean you can shout ‘fire’ in a crowded theater,” Breyer told me. “Well, what is it? Why? Because people will be trampled to death. And what is the crowded theater today? What is the being trampled to death?” …

WJClinton tried the same argument when he was in Denver celebrati...AHEM! I mean remembering Columbine.

You sure as hell CAN yell, "Fire," in a crowded theater.
Hopefully in an attempt to get people to avoid being burned to death.
If there's no fire and people are trampled, you must take responsibility for the call.
With rights come responsibility. Government has no say in this according to the Bill of Rights.

I always thought that was a silly argument, the Fire in a theater thing. The theater is private property. If you jump up and yell anything and disturb the patrons, you will get kicked out.
