First off, Michael Coren, even if he is correct about something, is certifiably insane. He makes Ann Coulter look reasonable (and not because Coren is a right wing nut, he's just a nut).

I personally feel that we do have a responsibility to the greater good - with individual rights protected. But when a person is doing something like shouting "fire" a in a crowded theatre, his "right" to freedom of expression is trumped by the rights of the citizenry to a safe environment. It's a case by case thing, and there is no one all encompassing answer.
