Does Freedom of Speech Include the Freedom to Swear?

When and where do schools have the authority to punish students for their use of language? When we hand our children over to government-run schools, do they in effect become the parents?

Public schools don’t have an interest in protecting student speech; they have a duty. Schools are institutions of instruction, not “nurseries of democracy.” Perhaps, if the schools these justices went to had spent more time instructing them and less time considering what was in the school’s interest, these men and women would realize not only that America is not a democracy, but that our Founding Fathers feared that it would become one.
