- Bethel School District No. 403 v. Fraser
- POOPY!!!
- By Ethan Roga
- Hey! I'm Matthew Fraser and today on April 26, 1983, I am hyping up my buddy Jeff Kuhlman for the school office!
- Here he is on the left! We're great friends!
- Well here goes the school day... hopefully its fun!
- The day was just like any other and I sat through my BORING classes
- But yay! Schools finally out!
- Chief Justice Burger: Tinker v. Des Moines Independent Community School District (1969) protected offensive speech!!
- And now I get to go to the voluntary assembly where I will nominate my pal Jeff!
- Justice Marshall: I agree with you guys! The school showed no proof of your speech disrupting education!
- I gave my speech in front of 600 students but APPARENTLY I wasn't supposed to say what I said...
- Now I have to wait outside the principal's office!!
- The End
- OMG HE SUSPENDED ME FOR 3 DAYS!!!
- My parents and I were NOT okay with this!
- So we went to court!!
- Was my suspension for the use of bad language at school a violation of my first amendment free speech??
- No!! The court said the school acted entirely within its permission for my offensive speech!
- So I repeated my steps and went to the United States Supreme Court for my case
- But they were no help and argued against me 7-2 that it was appropriate for the public school to punish me and prohibit my naughty language
- My case impacted other schools too because the court ruled that a high school assembly was no place for inappropriate language
- Personally, I think the court ruled unfairly and that Matthew had the right to promote his friend in a jokingly sexual metaphor. I did not find his language to be extremely inappropriate and due to the fact that they are all highschool students, I feel it was fair for him to speak inappropriately at a voluntary assembly in front of teenagers.
