In the case gitlow v new york, gitlow argued
that his first amendment rights were being violated.
that he couldn't be convicted of the same crime twice.
that his sixth amendment rights guaranteed him the right to a jury.
that he couldn't be jailed without being charged with a crime.

The correct answer is: A. That his First Amendment rights were being violated.

Explanation:

Around the end of the 1930s, Benjamin Gitlow was a member of the Socialist Party of America. He published a couple of anarchist pamphlets that were against the government of the time, in which he suggested that the government should be overthrown.

He was arrested for conspiring against the government. Gitlow argued that this violated his First Amendment (freedom of speech and freedom of press), as no action was provoked from his pamphlets.

The Supreme Court of New York, to defend their case, used as an example the Schneck v. US case, and pointed out that threatening the government was a valid enough reason to limit his First Amendment.
