Answer:
A review of the First Amendment
Explanation:
There is a need for the US congress to review the First amendment, establishing the measure of freedom of speech guaranteed.
Following the four significant Supreme court cases dating from 1969 to the most recent in 2006,it can be presumed that schools responses as well as the Supreme court response to student speech cases on public and high school student's practiced freedom of speech, have led to a narrowing down of student’s protection under the First Amendment as a result of the increasing spotlight on schooling over the past forty years.
Advantage: If the measure of Freedom of speech is established, both Students and Adults in a School environment are able to understand their limits clearly, and this will prevent Students from testing beyond their limits as they will be culpable.
Limitation: It is hard to define this limit, because of the peculiarity of the School environment and other environments too.
The decision give in Morse vs Fredrick case has an advantage that school authorities can prevent student from promoting illegal use of drugs and the disadvantage is that the freedom of speech is not well-defined.
What are the facts of Morse vs Frederick case?
In Jan 2002 student named Joseph Frederick of 18 years of a school in Alaska held a banner with message “Bong Hits 4 Jesus” at the public street near his school and he said that he choose the message simply to check his right to speech. And was suspended from the school for 10 days.
It was taken into consideration by the court that his message was, by his own admission, not by any political influence.
As the message was meant to promote illegal use of drugs. The court held that to safeguard the interest of schools, it can take action against promotion of illegal use of drugs without any violation to students first amendment rights.
Advantages of the decision is that students and their parents have freedom of speech, but they need to check that it do not promote any illegal use of drugs.
The disadvantage of this is that the freedom of speech is not defined, the definition is inclusive that means the boundary to freedom is not set.
Therefore, the advantage of the decision is school can prevent students from promoting illegal use of drugs and disadvantage is the freedom of speech has not well-defined.
