31. imminent lawless action is an even narrower standard than clear and present danger
which is why, in Brandenburg, a KKKer who, while armed, made statements like "Bury the n******rs" and "We intend to do our part" had his conviction overturned because it did not constitute the creation of imminent lawless action.

Thousands, if not millions, of rwers lap up the spew of rush and others on a daily basis. But only a handful go off their nut and actually do anything. That alone indicates that, from a constitutional analysis standpoint, there is no case to be made against rw ranters.
