Chapter 4

Freedom of Speech:
Freedom of Speech is important because it allows people to express their views. Everyone has a voice that should be heard. There are limits with freedom of speech. The limits can keep people from getting out of hand with their verbal actions. I don't believe it goes too far because of the restrictions. Something are always obligated to get out of hand but with these certain restrictions, I think freedom of speech is under control.

Freedom of Religion:
I believe the wall of separation is not necessary. I agree with the accommodationists. If the government doesn't favor one certain religion over another they could support practices. As long as the government isn't pushing a certain religion, it shouldn't matter.

Criminal Procedure:
I believe the rights to a defendant have become crucial overtime. Without their rights they wouldn't be treated as US citizens because everyone has rights. They become more crucial to our government everyday because they try to protect the wrong people for the wrong reasons. They have way too many rights. The government is more worried about how they will look due to a certain punishment instead of looking at the crime or the victim.


I commented on Gabby Miller, Amber Waters, and Rachel Bunch

  1. I agree with you that a wall of separation of church and state should not be necessary if the government did not favor a certain church or religion. People should have the right to use prayer not matter their religion where ever they please and not be bothered by anyone else.
