past. It leads to fairness, stability and predictability
2. Explain what "free speech" means, and use an example
to illustrate it and its limitations. (2pt) [ Ans: ] Free speech
means that there can be no law that criminalizes speech.
But there can be laws that regulate it to time place and

Free speech is only free in public areas. In private areas
you are limited. There are restrictions to time, place and
manner of what you are speaking.

somehow.
5. Explain the differences in requirements between
administrative searches, reasonable suspicion, and
probable cause. (3pt) [ Ans: ] Administrative searches
require no suspicion because you being there is your

Reasonable suspicion- something looks suspicious, and so
we are going to stop and try to find something that will
give us probable cause to do a
better search: look on the outside
Probable cause- a reasonable person could look at it and
be like oh this looks like something could be a crime- look
on the inside
