According to Wikipedia, “Civics is the study of rights and duties of citizenship. In other words, it is the study of government with attention to the role of citizen’s ― as opposed to external factors ― in the operation and oversight of government.”
In my opinion, one of the most important rights is the freedom of speech. We all can say what we think, but we also have responsibilities that go with the freedom of speech. Freedom of speech is the freedom to speak freely without censorship, and limitation. So I can say what I think about people, and I can’t get in trouble for it. But, I have to be respectful about saying it.
Freedom of speech is a good right that we have, because when someone does something we don’t like we can say something about it—even if that someone is the government.
- Here is a question for you-
If we have freedom of speech, why do schools limit it?
