Moines.
under our constitution, free speech is not a right that is
given only to be so circumscribed that it exists in principle,
but not in fact. freedom of expression would not truly exist
if the right could be exercised only in an area that a
benevolent government has provided as a safe haven for
crackpots.
which is the best summary of the passage?
a. i agree with justice fortas that freedom of speech would not truly
be "free" if the right had to be confined to certain safe places, as if
we are all rambling idiots.
o
b. in his majority opinion on tinker v. des moines, justice fortas
argues that "free speech is not a right that is given only to be so
circumscribed that it exists in principle, but not in fact" and that
free speech would not actually exist "if the right could be
exercised only in an area provided as a safe haven for
crackpots."
c. in his majority opinion on tinker v. des moines, justice fortas
argues that free speech would not truly exist if people could only
express their opinions in a designated place.
o
d. it says freedom of speech must be anywhere.
