Do you guys remember back in the 80's when Ozzy Osbourne was sued because some kid committed suicide and his parents found an Ozzy record on turntable (suicide solution was the first cut I think)? The courts in that situation found that Ozzy had a right to express himself and the kid who committed suicide was responsible for his own actions. I think the same thing applies here only on a bigger scale. I don't think you can realistically hold somebody accountable for what somebody else may or may not do as a response to you expressing your own thoughts and opinions. In the end all you're doing is limiting what ideas can be passed around in public because the possibility exists that bad shit might go down. Where does that stop and when does limiting speech cross the line into plain old censorship?
At some point you just have to accept that idiots exist in the world and they are going to do idiotic things regardless of how much you might try to contain it.
