Well, no, it certainly might, in some circumstances. Just as yelling "FIRE!" in some circumstances might - e.g. yelling something virulently racist while standing between two ethnic groups heatedly confronting each other in the street.

That is an invalid comparison. There is a world of difference between panic and anger.

Well, evidently I don't think it's invalid. Just asserting that doesn't achieve much. I haven't given this a great deal of thought, but it seems the specific emotions are so far irrelevant; what is relevant is whether an action causes harm, or may be predicted to do so/usually does so.

Fortunately, courts in the US do not have trouble discerning this difference.

Maybe if you made your points on here without seeming offensively snarky in your every sentence, you might have more success. "Don't be snarky."
