Ithiel De Sola Pool Quote

Quote from Ithiel De Sola Pool,

"It is within the police power of the state to prohibit public use of fighting words that create a danger of breach of the peace, but simply to prohibit public use of fighting words is too broad. Those words may sometimes be used in situations where there is no danger."
