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.

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.
isn't it "your freedom end where other people's rights begin." ??
My 10th grade US History teacher said, "Your right to extend your arm ends where your neighbor's nose begins."
like half of the world said that phrase but ok
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.
I'm not gonna comment pepper to boost his engagement.
Btw, the FCC fine has definitely affected things, an example of this being when Dale Earnhardt Jr won the 2004 EA Sports 500 at Talladega Superspeedway and was asked by the interviewer from NBC what it was like to win at Talladega for the fifth time and he said "it don't mean sh*t daddy won here ten times" and it cost him the 2004 cup series championship because NASCAR deducted points

What about saying “Hi Jack!” When you see your friend on the same flight as you. And his name is really jack. Is it illegal?
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.

Around New Years a wonderful radio show Coast to Coast with Art Bell had callers make predictions for the next year. The only prediction which was not permitted was about the death of the president because when such predictions were made the Secret Service would investigate, interview Bell, and ask for show records, a hassle Bell preferred to avoid.
