Join retired attorney Tom
Borcher as he discusses three landmark Supreme Court cases from the era of the
George H.W. Bush administration and explores how they have impacted our daily
lives. One major case that he will highlight is Texas v. Johnson of 1990, which dealt with flag burning. This case
and others like it have questioned the definitions of complicated issues of
civil liberties such as free speech.

Tom Borcher makes you
wonder: If you were on the Supreme Court, how would you have decided?
