Answer:    Was able to appreciate the wrongfulness of his behaviour and control it

Explanation:  It simply means, and what is regulated by law, that anyone who is perfectly healthy, that is, of a sound mind when committing a crime, means that they are aware of what they have committed and can bear full responsibility for the crime committed.

Answer:

In Schenck v. United States, the Supreme Court <u><em>ruled that bans on dangerous speech were constitutional.</em></u>

Explanation:

In the 1919 Supreme Court case of Schenck v. the United States, the court deemed the actions of Charles Schenck and Elizabeth Baer as unconstitutional. It deemed them criminals for trying to obstruct the government's drafting of men for war and that it is an act against the security of the nation.

This case revolves around the claim that the obstruction of Schenck and Baer's free speech was unconstitutional and they have the right to express their opinions. But the court insisted that since the leaflets they distributed were against national security, the First Amendment doesn't apply to them.
