During World War I Antiwar protests gave rise to many significant free speech cases related to issues and fomenting violence. In the 1919 case Schenck v. United States, the Supreme Court pointed that an antiwar activist did not have a First Amendment right to tribunal draft resistance.

Justice Holmes proposed the clear and present danger test, that would become a vital concept in First Amendment law; but the Schenck decision did not formally accept the test.

Holmes soon wrote his intention about the clear and present danger test. He intended the said test to refine, not replace, the bad tendency test<span>.

I think this might help.

Avian influenza (bird flu) has the potential to cause a healthcare crisis of unprecedented global dimensions. Many predict a global pandemic far worse than the 1918 Spanish Flu, which killed 40 million to 50 million people. A larger, denser global population, coupled with modern transportation systems of both goods and people, could result in a pandemic killing far more people worldwide. The consequences of such a pandemic would stretch beyond just public health. International relations, commerce, politics, travel, medicine, and economic and social infrastructures would be affected due to widespread infection and worldwide mitigation efforts.

<span>The correct answer is C. Protect citizen rights.
Governments should not inhibit any civil rights that are usually outlined in the constitution of the government’s country. It is the government’s duty to provide things like laws and supreme courts and constitution amendments in order to ensure that all citizens have equal rights regardless of their gender, race, religious beliefs, or anything similar. Usually, governments that try to oppress their people experience a coup or anything similar and it ends in a not very pleasurable manner. </span>
