discussion

Select the scenarios listed below and explain the best solution for each. Include comments related to any ethical issues that arise. You should try to locate at least one scholarly source or one case that has been decided or is currently pending to support your answer.

Scenario I—Second Amendment

You accepted a job with Morton Plant Hospital located in your city. The hospital is part of the BayCare system of for-profit hospitals. The employee handbook prohibits employees from possessing firearms on any company property. Morton Plant Hospital is located in an area of town that is known for high crime rates, and you work the second shift, which means you will be leaving work late in the evening. You have a permit to carry a firearm in your car and believe the handbook’s provision violates your rights.

• Summarize your state’s parking lot laws related to firearms.
• If you challenge your employer, which party will prevail? Provide arguments for both sides, determine which party wins, and provide support for your decision.

Scenario II–First Amendment

Sullivan, a student at Shelby County Middle School, learned he received a D in English, which meant he would be required to attend summer school. While in the school library, Sullivan posted on Facebook that his English teacher should be shot. Sullivan also posted a cartoon that showed the teacher’s head on a bloody dead body. Three days later, Sullivan’s mother instructed her son to remove the post. Before the post was removed, a student printed the post and showed it to the principal, who suspended Sullivan for the last two weeks of school. Law enforcement was not involved in the situation.

Determine whether Sullivan’s statement and the resulting action by the school violate the First Amendment. Provide at least one case to support your answer. 500 words.
