Answer:

B. Whether schools have the right to limit freedoms.

Explanation:

The most pressing issue in the case Tinker v. Des Moines is the fact that it is unclear whether schools have the right to limit freedoms. The students who wore armbands have a right to protest, however, the school might or might not have the right to limit this within its premises. Eventually, the Supreme Court concluded that the students did have the right to protest within school grounds as long as this did not affect the learning process.
