Correct answer choice is :


A) An action that expresses an idea or opinion

Explanation:

Symbolic speech is behavior that represents an idea. Although speech is usually thought of as verbal expression, we are all informed of nonverbal communication. Sit-ins, flag waving, presentations, and wearing.  Protest buttons are instances of symbolic speech. While most forms of behavior could be said to represent concepts in some way, only some conduct is defended as symbolic speech. In examining such cases, the courts ask whether the speaker meant to send a distinct message and whether it is likely that the message was perceived by those who inspected it.

Answer:

The correct answer is D. Symbolic Speech is an idea or opinion expressed through metaphor.

Explanation:

Symbolic speech is the act of expressing an idea through a mean other than language, such as marching, picking, wearing an armband, etc; and it is intended to convey a specific message. If it is recognized as an effective expression by the surrounding situation, it can be recognized as an act of expression in the Constitution, and be protected by the First Amendment.
