On Wednesday January 24th, a few friends and I were caught with marijuana and paraphernalia. We hadn’t actually smoked anything yet, but it was clear to campus police that we were about too. After they found us, they searched us for weapons and led us up to a parking lot where their car was. I believe that this is because there was a camera on the back of the police SUV and they wanted to record everything that happened. Once we were up there, they gave us all a phone number and told us we had…
Rights is the procedure by which American courts have connected parts of the United States ' Bill of Rights to the states. As per the convention of incorporation, the Due Process Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment applies the Bill of Rights to the states (Lader, 2006).

Throughout history censorship has followed people’s freedom of expression like a shadow. When I fled my country Ethiopia, not only as a result of censorship, but also extreme intimidation, I left my entire family behind.

Even though Ethiopia’s Constitution explicitly protects freedom of speech, in reality the government ignores it for the most part. In 2011, Reeyot…
Do dress codes with the purpose of restraining a student’s attire intrude on his or her First Amendment right to free speech? The Supreme Court has found some speech, verbal and nonverbal, is protected. On the other hand, the Supreme Court has also found that students’ dress, although a means of expression, can be regulated by schools. Some courts have demanded the rights of students be balanced against the need for school leaders to make logical health and safety laws. Most dress code…
The joke has been made by some that if prostitution is indeed the world’s oldest profession, than pornography must be the world’s oldest expression. Indeed, the very word pornography was originally used to describe any art or literature that depicted the life of prostitutes (Jenkins, 2014), while obscenity is a word believed to have come from the Middle French word obscène in the late 16th century, meaning “offensive to the senses, or to taste and refinement” (Harper, 2001). In order to…
police to arrive or waiting for the shooter to run out of ammo takes a lot longer than if some one who had a gun on them were to just kill the shooter. The other point they bring up is that in the constitution there is something called the second amendment which states “A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.” And when gun restrictions are placed the U.S government is taking away the peoples…
