Out of the six cases discussed in this lesson (Worcester v. Georgia, Korematsu v. United States, Miranda v. Arizona, Tinker v. D
es Moines, United States v. Nixon, and Bush v. Gore), pick one case to discuss. If you were Supreme Court justice would you have ruled in the same manner as they did? Why or why not?
I will pick Bush v. Gore for my choice. If I had of been a Supreme Court Justice at this time, I would of ruled for Al Gore over George Bush. If the Supreme Court had ruled in his favor and let the recount resume, there would of possibly been a different president.
I will pick the case of <em>Tinker v. Des Moines</em>. In this case, a group of students decided to wear black armbands to school in order to protest the Vietnam War. The school wanted them to remove these, and the children and their parents argued that this was a violation of free speech. The court sided with the parents.
If I were a Supreme Court Justice, I would have ruled in the same way. I believe that students and professors have the right to freedom of speech even when they are in school. Moreover, I think all Americans, regardless of their age, should have the right to peaceful protest, which is what the students were doing.
