This caused some of the kids to change their minds about wearing the armbands, but not John and Mary.…
Does the Constitution only apply in certain situations? Is it a document in which one can pick and choose what to enforce? In the court case of Tinker v. Des Moines Mr. J. Fortas and Mr. J. Black have very different outlooks on the topic of freedom of speech and whether a few students could or could not be protected by this law. In December 1965, a group of students in Des Moines held a meeting in the home of 16-year-old Christopher Eckhardt to plan a peaceful, silent, protest on their support for a truce in the Vietnam war.…
First of all, it is necessary to point out that Batesville is not in ICC’s range of recruitment. This is important because the college gained talented students, like Jake, who did not even belong to the region in which ICC immediately recruits. We know that IMPACT played a major role in this recruitment, which only expanded when the group detached from ICC. As Jake said in his interview, Magnolia Independent was able to reach out to more people, even outside of Mississippi.…
The ruling, which occurred during the Vietnam War, granted the students the right to express their political opinions as long as they did not disrupt the classroom. Their First and Fourteenth Amendment rights could not be restricted based on a “general fear of disruption,” which is what the administration argued. According to Justice Fortas, who wrote the majority opinion, the protest was a “silent, passive expression of opinion.” Though a few hostile comments had been made to the students who were wearing armbands, there had been no threats or acts of violence. Also, there had not been any findings that the armbands would substantially interfere with school operations or more importantly, harm the rights of other students.…

In the Tinker v. Des Moines court case the majority opinion believed that students need to have restrictions in place dictating what they can and cannot wear, and the teachers should effectively enforce the rules. Essentially, the majority agreed with the school principal's action to prohibit groups of students from wearing black armbands in support of the Vietnam war. Any student who proceeded to go against these rules would be suspended until all pieces of rules breaking clothing was removed. The Supreme Court did not agree with the view of the majority as it is their duty to uphold the freedoms the constitution grants.…
