I've always been nauseous of "incitement to violence" limitation. I just don't see a reasonable cutoff. Even Brandenburg's "imminence" limitation is twistable and suspect. Individuals are responsible for their actions, and it never sat well with me that we spread the culpability around.

Agreed. I just don't believe people can be held responsible for how their words affect another person. Some people are so easily offended that once you start holding people responsible for how their words affect others, there is no end. At it's core, South Park fights against this type of thinking with every single episode.
