First Lady of the United States

I’m tired of everyone exclaiming that they have a right to freedom of speech. She has an opinion. He has an opinion. And their only ammunition is that they have right to freedom of speech, so they continue to carry on with their foolishness. I wished that we were a communist nation that had strict laws that prevented citizens from expressing their feelings about social, political, racial and even sexual dilemmas that one may face daily. Everyone’s viewpoint is not needed, and the government…

"With censorship, things can get terribly wrong in the public mind"-William Westmoreland, a quote supporting censorship. Midtown International School should have a book advisory council to censor what students should read, students also should not be exposed to a negative reading environment, parents also would not have to worry about their child knowing something that is not appropriate for their age, reading things students will adapt to an abnormal lifestyle. If every school had an book…

be taken away, 3. The government gets its power to make decisions and protect rights for the people, and 4. When the government doesn’t protect the rights of the people the people have the right to change or remove the government.

Espionage requires doing things in an illegal manner; however, it should not violate the First Amendment in the United States’ Bill of Rights. The First Amendment stresses the people’s right of freedom of speech. Espionage and freedom of speech were always in conflict with each other as seen in the Supreme Court case Schenck v. United States. During that case, Schenck was convicted of breaking the Espionage Act of 1917 by telling people not to enlist in the army so the American government saw…

the Founding Fathers tried to protect religion from interference of the government, today’s government has tried to completely remove religion from daily life. The cases Van Orden v. Perry and McCreary County v. ACLU both represent a time when the First Amendment was put into question, each with a different result. With more religious freedoms being questioned, the intention of our Founding Fathers with regard to religious freedom and the government’s involvement are frequently questioned. After…

protection of the law and the majority ignored judicial restraint and stare decisis. Harlan believed the case was dealing with the first amendment and should not have lengthen to the fourth amendment; he came to the conclusion that imposing the exclusionary rule “bore quite different responsibilities in this area of law.”…

When I first arrived at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, I expected higher education to be a bastion for peoples to freely express themselves, providing the ability for both students and faculty to openly interact and engage with their peers regarding a multitude of subjects. Yet this feeling dramatically changed with time. During my sophomore year, I saw the campus’ College Republicans falsely label the school as anti-free expression due to a funding dispute between the group…

descended from the primate family. This was illegal in Tennessee because the Butler Act state anything that denied the story of Creationism forbidden to be taught in public schools. Scopes was later found guilty and fined $100. The Scopes Trials influenced the 1920s by questioning the Butler Act, altering the education system, and capturing the world’s attention. The first amendment of the United States Constitution states that…

Armbands After reading and analyzing the article “Armbands” I can infer that both Justice Hugo Black and chief justice and Fortas had compelling arguments on whether or not the students should not be prohibited on school ground on one hand justice Abe Fortas believes that certain kinds of speech should not be prohibited within an educational setting and on the other hand justice Hugo black argues that certain kinds of speech should be prohibited in an educational setting Justice Abe Fortas…

Freedom of speech can be debated on whether or not there should be boundaries to it or not and on what is considered freedom of speech. The First Amendment affirmed that "Congress shall make no law...abridging freedom of speech" but based on www.legal-dictionary.the free dictionary.com it states' All speech is not equal under the First Amendment.
