Answer:

The loss of life was greater than in any previous war in history, in part because militaries were using new technologies, including tanks, airplanes, submarines, machine guns, modern artillery, flamethrowers, and poison gas.

Concerned with a case in which a group of students wore black armbands to school in protest of the Vietnam war, Tinker v. Des Mo
larisa [96]

Answer:

On Feb. 24, 1969, the court ruled 7-2 that students do not “shed their constitutional rights to freedom of speech or expression at the schoolhouse gate.”

The court found that the First Amendment applied to public schools, and school officials could not censor student speech unless it disrupted the educational process. Because wearing a black armband was not disruptive, the court held that the First Amendment protected the right of students to wear them.

The court’s majority opinion, written by Justice Abe Fortas, went on to affirm the freedom that young people have under the Constitution:

In our system, state-operated schools may not be enclaves of totalitarianism. School officials do not possess absolute authority over their students. Students… are possessed of fundamental rights which the State must respect, just as they themselves must respect their obligations to the State. In our system, students may not be regarded as closed-circuit recipients of only that which the State chooses to communicate. They may not be confined to the expression of those sentiments that are officially approved. In the absence of a specific showing of constitutionally valid reasons to regulate their speech, students are entitled to freedom of expression of their views

Explanation:

Tinker v. Des Moines is a historic Supreme Court ruling from 1969 that cemented students’ rights to free speech in public schools.

Mary Beth Tinker was a 13-year-old junior high school student in December 1965 when she and a group of students decided to wear black armbands to school to protest the war in Vietnam. The school board got wind of the protest and passed a preemptive ban. When Mary Beth arrived at school on Dec. 16, she was asked to remove the armband and was then suspended.

Four other students were suspended as well, including her brother John Tinker and Chris Eckhardt. The students were told they could not return to school until they agreed to remove their armbands. The students returned after the Christmas break without armbands, but in protest, they wore black clothing for the remainder of the school year — and filed a First Amendment lawsuit.

Represented by the ACLU, the students and their families embarked on a four-year court battle that culminated in the landmark Supreme Court decision. Dan Johnston, a young lawyer also from Des Moines and just out of law school, argued the case.

On Feb. 24, 1969, the court ruled 7-2 that students do not “shed their constitutional rights to freedom of speech or expression at the schoolhouse gate.”

////!!!94 POINTS!!!//// what is one reason that English difficult to read (this is really supposed to be reaching your academic
velikii [3]

The correct answer is “The same group of letters in English can be pronounced in many different ways” Option A

In the English language there are 26 letters but 44 phonic sounds. There different ways to pronounce a letter, for example the a in apple is different than the a in car or ball that it also happens with the c in cat and ceiling. The Letter combinations can create new sounds like the ch, sh, and ea. What it’s more, one sound can be denoted by up to four letters like the a in apple, the ph in phone, the eau in plateau, and the eigh in eight.  And of course, what makes it even harder is that the combinations of letters aren’t necessarily pronounced in the same way for example the ch in chair versus chorus or the ea in eagle versus earth.

How did feudalism work easy.
pantera1 [17]
Feudalism worked easy because it was a system that worked from top to bottom. At the top you had the King which provided money for the Nobility that provided troops and protection for the king. Then the Nobility would bestow the land to his knights that would give the land to the peasants and they owned the land and farmer on it. The knights would provide military service for food that they farmed.
