Political Speech v. Obscene Disruptive Speech

Explanation:

In Tinker, the speech at issue was a protest of the Vietnam War. In Bethel, the speech at issue was a speech at an assembly chalk-full of sexual references. The Court decided that the speech in Tinker was 1. not disruptive 2. important to protect. They did not find that for Bethel.
