Answer:

the student’s First Amendment rights violated yes bc the first amendment is freedom of speech....it doesn't have to be nice.... it says "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances." it says nowhere in there that the freedom of speech had to be nice.

Answer:

Explanation:

yes, his first amendment rights WERE violated, but for good reason. he was insulting everybody in the room. he deserved the punishment he got for speaking so harshly in front of the entire student body and principals. While his rights were violated, he should not win this case against the school as they did the right thing.
