Right, but the words are still legal. There's no law against using fighting words; rather, if you use them and they result in a fight, you'll probably be judged to have started it even if the other guy threw the first punch. Aside from that, yeah -- you can hold your KKK rally on public property and say whatever you want, and if it doesn't end up directly resulting in violence, you're in the clear.
