      But falsely shouting “fire!” In a crowded theater isn’t free speech if it creates a disaster and/or summons emergency services in various US jurisdictions

      My point was more around the idea that you are/can be held responsible for the things you say rather than exact implementation requirements though.

        Yes. It is still important to recognize that yelling “fire” in a crowded theater would qualify as protected speech if the theater is on fire, regardless of whether it creates a disaster.
