recent case in which the first amendment rights of students were not upheld because they disrupted the school, instruction or the rights of other students. What were the main issues in the case? What was the court's decision and why? Most importantly, what is your opinion of the decision? Was it correct? Why? Alternately, you may choose to discuss a first amendment case that is presently going through the court system now and predict the outcome, including reasons why.
The case of Tinker v. Des Moines Indep. Sch. Dist. (1969) saw the rights of the students withheld and this was related to the constitutionality of the black armband.
This changed the abilities of the students for exercising their expression and speech. Under the first amendment of the US constitution there is constitutional rights for freedom and expression. Recent case wherein the first amendment rights were withheld includes sending students home for wearing spaghetti strapped top or dresses or measuring the length of their skirts to allow them to study. This is unconstitutional as it restricts the students from exercising their basic rights of free speech and expression. Few schools don't even allow the students to present their facts and make an argument
