Montreyvien JacksonJason ArmstrongEng 112328 September Jackson 1[Type here]Talking SpitWhile some believe freedom of speech violates the rights of others, it is one of the most fundamental rights that individuals enjoy. In this argumentative essay, I’ll discuss why freedom of speech is important, but it’s not the only important right that we have. Yes, freedom of speech should be absolute, but weshould not give anyone the chance to define reasonable restrictions. But 'hate speech ' should strictly be restricted, as it infringes on free speech of others. “Have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow know what you truly want to become, Steve Jobs”. Choosing this topic is to actually show that not everything needs an argument, like what if there weren’t any rules; imagine how the world be. The phrase every reaction doesn’t need a reaction, is a good way to explain that just because someone says something that we may not agree with doesn’t mean to react in a childish way. Some laws and rules and regulations people just can’t argue with. For example, there are rules at school you have to follow, when our mom/dad tells us something we have to do it etc. May not like it but some things just are set up the way they are for a reason and we can’t do nothing about it. When you’re a baby you may get what you want every now and

    Congress’s power to limit freedom of speech in any way is not included in the enumerated powers listed in Article I, Section 8 of the Constitution (20-21). The states, if anyone, are the only governments that might posses the power to limit free speech (21). Government officials, however, obviously have no regard for the Constitution or freedom of speech and are acting upon their own desires and values (21). Many examples of freedom of speech infringement are given throughout this book, and the author shows how these kinds of laws are enacted throughout history.

  • Should Neo Nazis Be Allowed Free Speech Analysis

    1043 Words  | 5 Pages

    Thane Rosenbaum, in his “Should Neo-Nazis Be Allowed Free Speech?” essay, used the Supreme courts justifying the right of a church group opposing gays serving in the military to picket the funeral of a dead marine with signs that read, “God Hates Fags” as well as neo-Nazis marching in a holocaust survivors’ town as an opportunity to oppose on justifying hate speeches with offensive intentions. Even though it was a strong topic, by missing an ethos appeal and stressing pathos appeal, Rosenbaum failed to make an effective and convincing argument. Rosenbaum did not share that his parents survived the holocaust, and that he is heavily involved in opposing the Nazi regime. He is a law professor in the U.S., and he was also visiting professor at the Benjamin N. Cardozo School of Law at Yeshiva University in Israel, where he has been a frequent speaker, including at the annual Yom HaShoah Lecture hosted jointly by the American Society for Yad Vashem and Cardozo 's Program in Holocaust & Human Rights Studies on “Remember How the Law Went Horribly Wrong”; the 60th anniversary of the Nuremberg Trials on "A Reappraisal and Their Legacy"; and as the Uri & Caroline Bauer Distinguished Lecturer on Rosenbaum 's book, “The Myth of Moral Justice."

    A further consideration that must be taken into account while evaluating this case is that of time, place, and manner restrictions. Such restrictions are a sort of measuring stick when it comes to these types of freedom of speech issues. If a group or individual does not comply with time, place, and manner restrictions, their actions are no longer protected by the First Amendment. Meanwhile, if these restrictions are adhered to, a party has the constitutional right to voice their viewpoints.

    Protests and the First Amendment The First Amendment of the U.S. Constitution gives people the right to assemble peacefully and to petition the government to redress grievances, but there is a question that I have asked myself. What are the ways that U.S. citizens can petition or protest the government? To answer this question I had to ask myself other questions that could help me, which are: what does “freedom of petition” mean in the First Amendment?, how do citizens petition the government and how does the government have to respond?, and what have U.S. courts said about this right? So I started looking at government publications, law journals, court cases, and forums.

    Free Speech on College Campuses Free speech is a freedom granted under several constitutions in the world, including the American constitution. The idea of free speech is one that is placed in the law to avoid situations where the ruling government or institution is not able to curtail the freedom of those being ruled.

  • Should Hate Speech And Should It Be Protected Under The First Amendment?

    285 Words  | 2 Pages

    Although hate speech is bigoted, hate-mongering, and can potentially lead to hate crimes, it should still be considered free speech. If citizens of the United States are not allowed to be verbal about their beliefs, whether or not they are offensive and hateful, then there is no use in allowing free speech. Placing limitations on free speech contradicts the First Amendment, therefore making it inaccurate and useless.

    Hello, It is quite comical how we have gotten to the point of which we are now censoring what we can and cannot wear. It is extremely ludacris. The reason I find it both comical and ludacris is because freedom of expression is a human right. The reason I wear the hat is that I am in support of a Conservative President. I support his Pro-Life stance, his call to a return of Traditional values, his defense of the West, his speech on why we must protect Western Values and our Judeo-Christian heritage, his Muslim ban and his support for Israel.
