QUESTIONS PRESENTED FOR REVIEW On February 8, 2018, Atlanta Independent School System (AISS) attached a scanned version of Mr. Dyer’s satirical flyer to a suspension letter which banned him from public comment for one year. AISS stated, “Specifically, you ; passed out flyers to audience members that contained the phrase “unnigged coming soon” and that contained a picture : . of Superintendent Carstarphen wearing a photoshopped football jersey with the name “FALCOONS” on it. These ‘ insulting references are completely outside the bounds of civility and, as before, were offensive to the Board, our Superintendent, and our staff and community.” This court has stated “giving offense is a viewpoint.” Matal v. Tam, 582 US _ (2017). We have said time and again that : “the public expression of ideas may not be prohibited merely because the ideas are themselves offensive to some of their hearers.” Street v. New York, 394 U. S. 576, 592 (1969). (‘If there is a bedrock principle underlying the First Amendment, it is that the government may not prohibit the expression of ; an idea simply because society finds the idea itself offensive or disagreeable”); Hustler Magazine, Inc. v. Falwell, 485 U.S. 46, 55-56 (1988). The questions presented are: : 1. Whether Atlanta Independent School System violated ; Mr. Dyer’s First Amendment right to free speech by : categorically banning him from using protected speech : in a limited public forum because of a satirical flyer depicting public figures and elected officials which AISS found to be offensive? : 2.
