Question 51 • Crowley Credit Recovery Algebra II B

Though the outcomes of Tinker and Schenck differed, which best describes what these court decisions have in common?

Answer
A
They agreed that political expression could be restricted.
B
They agreed that libel was not protected speech.
C
They agreed that symbolic speech could be protected.
D
They agreed that speech rights could be limited to protect safety.

Explanation

Both decisions recognized that free-speech rights are not unlimited when speech creates a serious risk. In Schenck, the Court allowed speech to be restricted when it posed a danger, and in Tinker, it said schools could limit student expression if it substantially disrupted school or interfered with others’ rights. Thus, both decisions accepted limits aimed at protecting safety or order; they did not agree that all political expression could be restricted.
