The issue of school speech<span> or </span>curricular speech<span> as it relates to the </span>First Amendment to the United States Constitution<span> has been the center of controversy and litigation since the mid-20th century. The First Amendment's guarantee of </span>freedom of speech<span> applies to students in the public schools. In the landmark decision </span>Tinker v. Des Moines Independent Community School District<span>, the </span>U.S. Supreme Court<span> formally recognized that students do not "shed their constitutional rights to freedom of speech or expression at the schoolhouse gate".</span>
<span> The form of government that most of Texas' largest cities have is a council-manager form of government.
Hope this helps!

Paine, along with many revolutionaries of the period, viewed government as being inherently limited, in the sense that it was meant to serve the people and not the other way around. That's why he wrote "common sense" which talked about the absurdity of British rule over the colonies.
