Original Lead: National Socialist Party of America v. Village of Skokie, 432 U.S. 43 (1977),[1]arising out of what is sometimes referred to as the Skokie Affair,[2]is a United States Supreme Courtcase dealing with freedom of speechand freedom of assembly. Related court decisions are captioned Collin v. Smith[3]and Smith v. Collin.[4]Although summarily decided on procedural grounds, the necessary implication of the Supreme Court's 1977 NSPAdecision — not directly stated in the unsigned, 5-4 per curiamopinion itself[1]— is that a group's request to engage in a parade or demonstration involving public display of the Naziswastikais a symbolic form of free speech that is at least presumptively entitled to First Amendmentprotections. In other words, the Court's decision implies that First Amendment protection would not be denied to use of the swastika as a form of "fighting words". Three of the four dissenters stated their agreement with the majority's position that First Amendment protections were applicable to the NSPA's challenge to the Illinois injunction. (Only Justice Whitedid not join that statement.) By requiring the state court to consider the neo-Nazis' appeal without delay, the U.S. Supreme Court decision opened the door to allowing the National Socialist Party of America to march.
- Plan: Look at Strum, Downs, and Delgado's arguments about the opinion and its implications of the case as well as what the dissenters said. Reword third sentence to make more concise.
