Is this Ground Zero Mosque issue similar to the issue of yelling “Fire!” in a crowded theater?

When the Founding Father’s wrote the 1st Amendment, they quickly saw that not all freedom of speech should be protected. The example they used was yelling ”Fire!” in a crowded theater as this would create panic and people would be crushed in the rush to leave the theater. So what this comes down is freedom but within reason, meaning that people have freedom to say things but as long as it doesn’t put people in society in any danger.

Building this Ground Zero Mosque will put people in danger, won’t it? I mean, this is going to make a lot of people in the USA very angry and there will likely be an increase in sectarian violence between Muslims and Christians because of this mosque, right? So shouldn’t the federal court step in and use the yelling “Fire!” in a crowded theater argument and outlaw any new Muslim buildings in New York?
