http://civillibertieslab.blogspot.com/2009/03/freedom-of-speech_19.html
Sunday, March 15, 2009. Warning. This lab may be very upsetting to some of you. Is there any speech that you think goes too far to be protected by the First Amendment? Some Supreme Court justice thought so. Justice Robert H. Jackson said. The Constitution is not a suicide pact" in a 1949 ruling. The court has drawn lines of some things that are not protected speech. Is there anything you think goes too far and should not be protected speech? Watch the following videos of the Westboro Baptist Church.

http://civillibertieslab.blogspot.com/2009/03/dress-codes.html
Tuesday, March 17, 2009. On February 24, 1969, the landmark Supreme Court case, Tinker V. Des Moines. Guaranteed that students had certain civil liberties in school. Since the 1980s the rights of students have become more limited. What am I going to wear to school? There is a legal answer to this question. Speech is much more than just words. What you wear is considered a form of speech. Many school districts across the nation have instituted student dress codes. One school in Florida even banned rainbows.
