The phrase "innocent suspects were rounded up, often on the flimsiest of evidence" illustrates how officials targeted innocent individuals regarding Lincoln's assassination. In Act 3 Scene 3 of Julius Caesar, four commoners aggressively question Cinna the poet solely due to sharing a name with one of the conspirators involved in Julius Caesar's murder. Despite his denials, they choose not to listen and ultimately condemn him to death, even though he is innocent. Both of these instances reveal that in the wake of a significant figure's murder, public reaction can often lead to irrational behavior in the hunt for the actual perpetrator, resulting in innocent people being wrongfully accused.

In Tinker v. Des Moines, one of the dissenting justices was Hugo Black. Justice Black contended that the First and Fourteenth Amendments prevent the government from censoring the content of speech. He also held, however, that this protection does not allow demonstrations at any place or time without restriction. He asserted that the students' actions were disruptive, and therefore they should not have been permitted to continue their protest.
