A well know example was the burning of the draft cards on Kent State University in May 1970. Burning or tampering with draft cards was illegal and therefore resulted in 4 students being shot and killed on May 4, 1970. The burning demonstration was used to show the people's’ discontent with the Vietnam War. Rocks and other things were thrown at officers. The student’s freedom of expression no longer applied here. Rights can be taken away at any time. Another example, taking a more extreme route, was the incident that happened into Oregon. Oregon activists protested and marches the streets so the government would stop taking land for wildlife reservation. Not only that, the armed activists took over a national wildlife refuge. The whole demonstration was first overlooked but as time passed the government started to take action. At least one occupier was killed and eight others were in custody on federal charges Tuesday night after law enforcement struck in a flurry of surprise arrests that caught protesters who had temporarily left the occupied refuge (Pearce, 2016). A shootout ensued on U.S. Highway 395 leaving one killed. All participators received felonies and other charges. Rights are limited and doesn’t apply in every
