This case is formally known as the "Dred Scott vs. Sandford" case.

ANSWER: <u>The Dred Scott v. Sandford Case</u>, decided on March 6, 1857.

Dred Scot, a slave-borned, lived in Illinois and the Louisiana Territory (where slavery was prohibited) for 10 years from 1830 to 1840 approximately. When he returned to Missouri, Scott filed suit in the court for his freedom in 1847, alleging that his residence in free territory made him a free man.

However, his case wasn't brought before the Supreme Court until 1857, in which it was held that such residence didn't entitle his freedom and that no black people, whether free or slave, could be an American citizen, therefore he didn't have the right to sue in federal court.

Another questionable decision resulting from the case was the ruling that the Missouri Compromise (1820), which had declared Missouri as a free state, was unconstitutional.

Many consider that the decisions made in this case helped to move faster to the American Civil War.

What argument could you make that flag burning is likely to cause violence and therefore should be against the law ?
anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

<h2>Flag burning is an act of violence</h2>

Explanation:

--------------------------------------------

<em>Flag burning is likely to cause violence because it is an act of violence. Let me tell you in a way where you will understand, I do not know if you are talking about the American flag or every flag ever made, but, if you burned the American flag, people might take it as a threat, or just ignore it. Apparently, burning the American flag is legal, this is because in the year 1989, the Supreme Court declared that they couldn't stop people from burning these flags. They also declared that the federal / state laws that protect the flag are in violation of free-speech protections. I think it should be illegal because if people keep doing it, they will just keep doing it! They won't stop and will never stop. It also means that they are disrespecting our country, which I respect, but I do not respect the way that the people act when they burned it. I watched this video and people were cursing, acting like they own the world, and hurting other people with the fire on the flag. I wish the Supreme Court would stand up to this, I understand that the people will always protest, and that it's very hard to get the people to listen, but please, if you can try to, bring this back up and try again.</em>

--------------------------------------------

I got some of these answers from TIME, you can check it out if you want to, and I wrote most of this myself. I also wrote the "Flag burning is an act of violence" so I wouldn't take anyone elses idea.

--------------------------------------------

<em>Hope this helps! <3</em>
