- A video case brief of Texas v. Johnson, 491 U.S. 397 (1989). Check out the full-text brief here: www.quimbee.com/cases/texas-v...
After publicly burning an American flag as a means of political protest, Gregory Lee Johnson (defendant) was convicted by the State of Texas (plaintiff) for desecrating a flag in violation of Texas law. Johnson challenged his conviction in state court on the grounds that the law violated his First Amendment right to freedom of speech. The Texas Court of Criminal Appeals reversed the conviction, and the United States Supreme Court granted certiorari.
Thx i had to do a project on this
Ironic that the country whom he hates so much upheld his rights when he could have easily been punished. I hope that was not lost on him.
I have a quiz over this in less than an hour. This was a great summary and will definitely help me get a good grade!
The Constitution protects even those who hold it in contempt.
When you sound like a fnaf character 😐😐😐
Wrong decision. The flag should be considered a registered trademark of the government subject to its' conditions of use.
I'm a conservative. I find flag burning pretty despicable. I was interested to hear that O'connor and especially Stevens (big ol' liberal) dissented. I do think though that Free Speech > Concerns about flag and think the court reached the right decision. Never knew about the attempt to amend in 2006. Will have to look into it.
Exotic butters i mean exotic lessons
is this voiced by andrew field
is that Andy Field-
The Supreme Court was dead wrong on this one! I’m going to burn an American flag to show my disapproval.
Outstanding detailed video.
Omg thank you so much
Thank You so much... New Sub!
...hand unit??
Concise information. One problem. In your last picture, you showed the hanging of the US Flag with the blue field and stars on the right. To properly display a flag hung vertically, the blue field and stars go on the upper left.
let's watch as everyone fights in the comments
Okay im still confused because my teacher said no to burn the flag in public only at home so is it illegal?
ANDY FIELD??
going by that logic something that symbolise the American freedom can be burnt down
