Panel Day

On panel day a group of students and I got into a room with two teachers Adam Bunting and Babra Crippin (their was supposed to be three but she did not show up). We had a discussion about freedom of speech we talked about court cases and the people who tried to fight for free speech. Personally I could go either way with the restrictions of freedom of speech because 1. people have fought and died so they can speak what is on their mind so they could say what they want when they want and at school you have as much free speech here as in Cuba 2. If people constantly speak out their thoughts their would be thousands of debates and debates our the first step into fights and the next thing you know the youth of America will be talking back and swearing and the entire country breaks into chaos and people like me will be looting everywhere. So I think their should be a balance between the two not enough restrictions were people say what the government wants them to say and nobody can speak their minds and not enough limitations were people argue all the time and the country goes into chaos. So in this debate I could go either way. But Adam and Barbra both did agree that freedom of speech is good  but in school their should be some restrictions.
