the very purpose of a bill of rights was to withdraw certain subjects from the vicissitudes of political controversy,to place them beyond the reach of majorities and officials and to establish them as legal principles to be applied by the courts .
Only the emergency that makes it immediately dangerous to leave the correction of evil counsels to time warrants making any exception to the sweeping command ,‘congress shall make no law abridging the freedom of speech.'
the case is made difficult not because the principles of its decision are obscure but because the flag involved is our own .Nevertheless,we apply the limitations of the constitution with no fear that freedom to be intellectually and spiritually diverse or even contrary will disintegrate the social organization.
