Assembly on Public property Parade or Demonstration without a permit

Who is this?? What was this event??

Illinois, Chicago is largest city Village of Skokie, in Chicago

Frank Joseph Collin Skokie residents, Holocaust survivor

NATIONAL SOCIALIST PARTY v. SKOKIE (1977) The Supreme Court ruled they were allowed to march without wearing Swastika Armbands. First Amendment freedoms must apply to EVERYONE, if those with whom we disagree!

A local policeman arrests you and your friends for driving four wheelers on the highway in Midland. To get back at him you hold an assembly on his lawn to protest his actions. Can you do this??? NO!!! You can’t hold an assembly on private property, even if he did confiscate your four wheelers.

Lee starts the “America Against Old Ladies” group. This group is VERY unpopular with the public, but continues to exist and dislike old ladies, especially their driving. Lee’s group decides to have a demonstration in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida, an old folks community. The old folks oppose this event. Can Lee’s group have this demonstration? Yes, even unpopular groups have the right to assemble!

Danielle and Jodie skip school to hold a parade on Main Street. Although the parade is just the two of them, a large crowd forms to watch them march. Several cars veer off the road to avoid hitting the two girls, unfortunatley the car takes out a Pizza shop (RELAX, there are 10 more) and part of the crowd of onlookers. What document could the girls have gotten to avoid this mess??? A Permit!

Your uncle’s wife’s brother’s step-son’s dog was found digging up questionable smoking materials in your best friend’s yard. Your friend is arrested and charged with possession. The next day the Cumberland Times News has an article about the incident on the front page. Your friend is released from jail, but is fired from his job. Did the newspaper have the right to print the arrest and charges so that all local readers would see??? Yes!!! Freedom Of Press!!!
