The correct answer is B.

The Schenk case dealt with Schenk encouraging people to avoid the military draft during World War I. He was arrested but argued that his first amendment freedom of speech was violated. After making its way through state and local courts, the case made it all the way to the Supreme Court.  However, the court ruled it was NOT protected by the first amendment right of freedom of speech. This is because it caused a clear danger to the US war effort, which could cause the US to lose World War I.

B--when it presents a clear and present danger to society. 

This decision came during wartime and Justice Holmes was clear that circumstances determine if speech can be restricted. 

Schenck sent pamphlets to drafted soldiers during World War I stating the government should not ask men to kill other men. During war, this speech can be dangerous and therefore restricted. If it was said during peacetime, then there is no danger and Schenck would have been free to express.

What were some of the factors that led to exodus of Africa-America from the south to the north
iren [92.7K]

After the slavery was officially abolished in all of the US, the African Americans were quick to move out of the South and migrate massively toward the North. There were several factors as to why this happened. One big factor was that even though the slavery was abolished, the segregation and discrimination continued, so the opportunities in life were very limited. The South was not industrialized, while the North was heavily industrialized, thus the African Americans saw an opportunity to work in the factories instead in the fields. The atmosphere in the North was much better for them, as the majority of the people welcomed them and had no problems with them because of their skin color.

Linguists agree the ability to speak a language sets humans apart from other animals because we can: ______
victus00 [196]

Answer:

c. borrow words from other languages.

d. invent languages.

e. use abstract terms including past and future.

Explanation:

Linguists are experts who engage in the scientific study, analysis and preservation of language.

Linguists agree the ability to speak a language sets humans apart from other animals because we can invent languages, borrow words from other languages and use abstract terms including past and future.

On the other hand, animals cannot do any of the aforementioned because they are not as smart, intelligent and creative as the human species.

Hence, this set humans apart from other animals as higher level animals with the ability to use language as a tool for effective and efficient communication. Humans can use language as an expression of emotions, feelings and connotation.

How did the invention of machine guns influence European states in the 19th century?
Debora [2.8K]
The invention of machine guns greatly influenced European states in the 19th century because it allowed them to violently colonize Africa with little-to-no resistance, since the weapons used by the native Africans could not compete.
