How free is free speech?

After discussing the Texas v. Johnson case, we'll continue to look at protests and consider notions of our freedoms and liberties as it's important to have a fuller understanding of the intent and purpose of the speech clause of the First Amendment as well as its limitations.
Thus, today, we'll read this document to understand those principles and limitations: First Principles of the First Amendment. After reading its main principles, in groups, you'll work to understand the limitations of the First Amendment by putting them into your own words.
Then, we'll work to apply those principles and the limitations tests to some real case studies. Your group should choose one note taker who will make a copy of the note taking sheet, share it with everyone and keep track of your conversations in the first THREE columns of the note-taking sheet. Leave the last column blank for the answers.
