Another illegal word is "Mayday" in certain contexts. By saying Mayday on VHF Radio or other aeronautical or maritime frequency allocation without the station being in a state of distress, the station will be subject to permanent revocation or radio license and radio operator privileges, will be held liable for a criminal fine of up to $250000, up to 6 years in prison, or both and remuneration for expenses incurred during the rescue operation. These can exceed a million dollars in extensive operations. That means you would need to pay up to 2 million and then maybe also serve 6 years in prison, all for a word spoken on the radio.

We had a case here in Australia where a man ended up in court for calling a cop a c#$t. The courts heard the evidence and determined that citizens have the right to call someone what ever they want , offence taken or not.

My eighth grade US history teacher explained it as such, “your rights end where other people’s rights begin.” Simple enough, but is pretty good for explaining it.
SantiagoMG yeah, but not the point. Most sayings and whatnot are common as all hell, doesn’t change the fact that I associate that particular saying with my history teacher.
Mustafa Baybars that one doesn’t work though. I don’t have a right, for example, to punch you in the face, but I am still free to do it. Nobody can preemptively stop me from doing it.
You should do a video about the apology law that Canada enacted. Ppl here casually apologize so much they had to stipulate that doing so is not strictly an admission of liability.
No, because if you’re saying “Hi, Jack!”, you would say it with a space between the words, an uplifting tone, and perhaps a wave at the person you’re greeting. If you’re saying “Hijack!”, it would be all one word, in a fearful or threatening tone.
The "Fire in a crowded theater" thing is often cited as an example because of its use in a Supreme Court case, Schenck vs. U.S. What they don't realize is that the case upheld a conviction of someone for distributing leaflets criticizing the draft in WWI and it has since been overturned. There's no legal precedent to hold that that one word even in that situation is necessarily illegal, HOWEVER, the article you cited does provide one of the rare instances where it can be. Basically, you can shout fire in a crowded theater as much as you want as long as you don't ACTUALLY cause a stampede.
Government: It’s illegal to say “I’m going to kill the president of the United States” Me: Bro, you just said it. Go to jail Government: *Outstanding move*
Fun Facts about "shouting fire in a crowded theater": 1. As the narrator suggested, it is not illegal per se, in any U.S. state. 2. The example was given by a supreme court justice who wanted to put war protestors in prison for protesting in the early 20th century. This precedent has been more or less eviscerated since then.
fun fact in 2009 the band leathermouth released a song titled i am going to kill the president of the united states, the frontman of the band was visited by the us secret service and was threatened with jail time if he or his band ever performed the song like that again
