court_opinion unhinged from edwards v south carolina, supreme court of the united states, february 25, 1963 '[a] function of free speech under our system of government is to invite dispute. it may indeed best serve its high purpose when it induces a condition of unrest, creates dissatisfaction with conditions as they are, or even stirs people to anger. speech is often provocative and challenging. it may strike at prejudices and preconceptions, and have profound unsettling effects as it presses for acceptance of an idea. that is why freedom of speech ... is...protected against censorship or punishment, unless shown likely to produce a clear and present danger of a serious substantive evil that rises far above public inconvenience, annoyance, or unrest...there is no room under our constitution for a more restrictive view. for the alternative would lead to standardization of ideas either by legislatures, courts, or dominant political or community groups.' 180911 what's it to you? who go blather from
