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?
