100 POINTS PLS HELP FAST ON TIME LIMIT!!! In West Virginia State Board of Education v. Barnette, the Supreme Court ruled on the case of a family of children who were sent home from school because they refused on religious grounds to salute the flag. In ruling in favor of the family, Justice Robert Jackson wrote:
To sustain the compulsory [required] flag salute we are required to say that a Bill of Rights which guards the individual's right to speak his own mind, left it open to public authorities to compel [force] him to utter [say] what is not in his mind.
Which best states the meaning of Jackson’s ruling?
It means that the flag salute should be expected of all students regardless of their beliefs.
It means that making people say something they do not believe goes against their right to free expression.
It means that the Bill of Rights is limited because public authorities can still make people act in certain ways.
It means that it is acceptable to require the flag salute because it does not actually change a person’s beliefs.
