"Jigsaw Activity" 4/25

1) Give a quick explanation of the topic and propose a debate resolution of the topic. (a couple of sentences)

The section that I did was on the free speech of the media. I think that it was a bad thing for the media to censor the opinions and the pundits of the people agents the President or have a 2nd opinion on 9/11.

2) Explain why it is an important topic. You choose what to write about, but here are some suggestions if you are stuck: How does it impact your constitutional rights? Can it impact your daily life? Does it empower or disempowered you as an individual? Does it promote or inhibit public discussion? Does it help or hurt people getting along with one another? (short paragraph)


The censorship that Hollywood and the media put on the people with minority opinions was a bad thing to do because well all have a right of freedom of speech and no won has the right to take that away from us, but there are also times where people have to lesion to what they are going to say. Some times what people say can heart or insult some with the things they say. This can cause violence with just worlds. I also thing that you should only say some thing in serton places.

3) Write one or two sentences that explain a good point made by the con side and one or two sentences that explain a good point made by the pro side (2-4 sentences total).


This a quote made by the con side that I think has a really good point "The Hollywood celebrities on the left think they can do or say whatever they please and face no criticism or consequences. It's time for them to wake up and join the real world. Until then, our First Amendment rights continue to be strong. Just as strong are the consequences for using those First Amendment rights without first using our brain."
