what is one way in which black argues against the majority opinion?

a. he argues that students are not \people\ as defined in the constitution.

b. he argues that the students behavior was not symbolic.

c. he argues that class was in fact disrupted because of the students.

d. he argues that the district court in fact favored the students.

Explanation:

This refers to Justice Hugo Black's dissent in Tinker v. Des Moines Independent Community School District. The majority held student symbolic speech (armbands to protest the Vietnam War) was protected. Black argued the students' armband protest did disrupt classroom order and school operations, directly countering the majority's finding of no substantial disruption.

Answer:

C. He argues that class was in fact disrupted because of the students.
