Question

Justice Black describes those who protest as the "loudest-mouthed, but maybe not their brightest, students" and those who are affected by the protest as "earnest but frightened students." How do these descriptions support his dissenting opinion?

Answer 1

Answer:

These statements support the idea that high school students do not have enough intellect to support political issues, especially within schools.

Explanation:

Justice Black states that students do not have enough understanding to take a position on political issues. This lack of understanding and knowledge, makes students with little academic development, use political issues to cause uproar, disrupt classes and prevent really brilliant students from feeling comfortable inside the school. In this case, she says it is incorrect to allow these students to make protests within the school, even if these protests are peaceful and silent.
