Summary Of Your DNA Is An Abomination By Rudy Martinez
Imagine seeing a poster that mocks one of your friends. Do you leave it up or pull it down from off the wall? A situation of the sort happened with The Star, a student run newspaper at Texas State University, published an article titled, “Your DNA Is an Abomination” written by Rudy Martinez. This article caused offense to many, and it was later defunded. John Samples, vice president at the Cato Institute, wrote an article in response to the article by Martinez. This article, “Is Hate Speech Protected by the First Amendment? What about this?” argues that regardless of a person's view towards the article, Martinez had the right of the First Amendment to keep the article up.

    Gattaca -Dna Testing Essay Example

    In Gattaca, a film whose roots are firmly planted in the Science Fiction genre, the timeline in which the movie is set is never really stated, thus it could be next year, in another ten, or not for one hundred. While this is effective is making us believe that this could be, "just around the corner", the society presented is widely regarded as being too close to our present day in order to present a true chilling image. With DNA testing already quite common in the sporting world and in what the movie centers around, space exploration, Gattaca arguably fails to deliver its message with enough force to severely impact on the psyche of viewers.…

    As Walker put it “The American Civil Liberties Union was a unique organization….In contrast, the American Civil Liberties Union adopted the policy of impartially defending civil liberties, including the principle of free speech, without reference to the content of that speech” This comes at a time when “the Supreme Court had soundly rejected all First Amendment claims.” (47)…

    Argument #1:Should the first amendment protect hate speech? No, it should not protect hate speech. There are numerous lines drawn around our free speech already, and most Americans feel they are justified. For example, one cannot falsely yell “Fire” in the middle of a crowded theater. Just because we can say something, it doesn’t mean we should.…

    Speech Codes Threaten The Free Exchange Of Ideas On College Campuses

    In the debate over whether speech codes should be enforced or not on university campuses, the opponents conclude that university’s should not enforce a hate speech code because it impedes academic freedom. On the other side of the debate, the supporters conclude that it is a university’s responsibility to enforce hate speech code for an equal education opportunity. In this essay, I will conclude that hate speech should be regulated by a code enforced by the university because of the protection it offers. In the article titled, “Speech Codes Threaten the Free Exchange of Ideas on College Campuses” Eugene Volokh concludes that colleges should enforce a speech code.…

    Thought That We Hate

    The subjects of concern are the brave judges belonging to the 20th Century who were the pillars that laid the foundation of the First Amendment that called for what has widely become lingo – freedom of speech – but which has also become largely distorted and diluted in its meaning, in its context, and in its essence. Lewis reminds us what this amendment in the Constitution truly entails – the restriction laid on the government, the banning of offensive speech on the government’s part, is the focal point of the argument that Lewis puts before his readers. His advocacy for the first amendment and his reminder comes at a likely time for reminders, when the campaigns elections are in full swing, and when the State has been suddenly taken as if by a thunderous storm of hate speech, offensive speech, and what is tantamount to straight up vulgarity. Lewis reminds his audiences and jogs our memories back to the draft in the Constitution that deal so strictly with the issue of offensive speech. A timely judgment on Lewis’ part, this kernel of concentrated thought hits the mark with acute precision and with an iron fist, and puts many a cheek to the red blush of shame, and guilt, and…

    Civility and It's Discontents

    As American people, we know that we are entitled to certain rights according to the constitution; one of which is freedom of speech. In Civility and Its Discontents, Leslie Epstein explores the limits and contradictions of this much cherished right when considering whether he would expel a student who wrote racial slurs in the dorm rooms of a University if it was up to him. He discusses this situation and topics that stem from it in an analytical yet somewhat emotionally involved tone and makes the reader reflect on the wide range of information presented about the issues of political correctness, freedom of speech, expulsion, and racism.…
