Shooting Fire Discussion Questions

1. I believe some people believe the First Amendment goes too far because it covers too much.  For example the freedom of speech excuse is used too often.  People are able to blame something they said even if wrong on the fact that the First Amendment allows them to the freedom of speech.

2. My reaction to the story of school principle Debbie Almontaser was I was very shocked.  The media who is supposed to provide us with factual information twisted Debbie's story.  Her words were twisted into a way that made her seem like the bad person when she had a lot more to say.

3. http://www.washingtonpost.com/news/volokh-conspiracy/wp/2014/04/23/on-freedom-of-speech-social-tolerance-and-opposition-to-gay-marriage/ 

This article shown here talks about freedom of speech and gay marriage, similar to the documentary when the young boy who apposed gay rights was protected by the freedom of speech amendment.
