The sheer absurdity of many of the cases they present illus­ trate the shortcomings: speech codes are legalistic controls misapplied to a prob­ lem of ideology; the exercise and enforce­ ment of such codes tend to be arbitrary; and they are designed primarily to ac­ commodate the administrative flowcharts and paper-chase procedures of bureau­ crats. cache/crl-15320.pdf txt/crl-15320.txt
