Which lines in this excerpt from act III of Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet best show Lord Capulet’s oppressive and authoritarian

nature? CAPULET: Things have fall'n out, sir, so unluckily, That we have had no time to move our daughter: Look you, she loved her kinsman Tybalt dearly, And so did I: Well, we were born to die. 'Tis very late, she'll not come down to-night: I promise you, but for your company, I would have been a-bed an hour ago. PARIS: These times of woe afford no time to woo. Madam, good night: commend me to your daughter. LADY CAPULET: I will, and know her mind early to-morrow; To-night she is mew'd up to her heaviness. CAPULET: Sir Paris, I will make a desperate tender Of my child's love: I think she will be ruled In all respects by me; nay, more, I doubt it not. Wife, go you to her ere you go to bed; Acquaint her here of my son Paris' love; And bid her, mark you me, on Wednesday next— But, soft! what day is this?

Answer:

I think she will be ruled in all respects by me

Explanation:

The authoritative and imperative character of Lord Capulet is demonstrated in  the line above. The action ruled indicates his kingly behavior, "I doubt it not", he adds as a way to say that what he commands has to be done. He even orders his wife to "go you to her ere you go to bed". The choice of words of Lord Capulet is an expression of his oppressive nature towards his wife and daughter respectively. He is used to giving orders rather than requesting. It is important to mention that in ancient times women were commonly victims of men's oppression; Juliet and her mother were not the exception.

Why does justice Brennan agree with Gregory lee johnsons feelings about the flag?
Vlada [557]
I hope this answers your question..

The majority of the Court, according to Justice William Brennan, agreed with Johnson and held that flag burning constitutes a form of "symbolic speech" that is protected by the First Amendment. The majority noted that freedom of speech protects actions that society may find very offensive, but society's outrage alone is not justification for suppressing free speech.

In particular, the majority noted that the Texas law discriminated upon viewpoint, i.e., although the law punished actions, such as flag burning, that might arouse anger in others, it specifically exempted from prosecution actions that were respectful of venerated objects, e.g., burning and burying a worn-out flag. The majority said that the government could not discriminate in this manner based solely upon viewpoint.
