The U.S government under Woodrow Wilson however had passed the Espionage act of 1917, which had made speech like Schneck’s illegal because it acted as interference to military operations and recruitment. The Supreme Court ruled in a unanimous decision that Schneck’s conviction was constitutional. The reasoning given was that because this was a time of war justice Holmes said, “the question in every case is whether the words used are used in such circumstances and are of such a nature as to create a clear and present danger that they will bring

Four were on their feet and other remained seated. The tall SS officer who was in charge smiled at the them and mocked, "We're making merriment yes?" Then he pointed to them squinting his small devious blue eyes and demanded, "What's your names?" Everyone gave their name and he frowned at Joseph and through clenched teeth snickered, "You let's go."

Willy gasped for air and Anna dashed over to help her up. The officer smirked with

This is shown by the evidence the author provides through Shay and Tally’s conversations. When Tally laughed and said “In only… two months and fifteen days,” Shay asked “Can’t we just wait until then?” Tally then responded with a sigh, saying “Sometimes I don’t think I can.” Shay follows up saying “Hey, might as well make the best of it.” In this piece of dialogue, the author portrays Tally as sad, someone who is jealous while trying to laugh out their sadness.
