1. The leading cases in the early 1940s involving the Witnesses are these: Cantwell v. Conn., 310 U.S. 296 (1940), granting an exemption to Witnesses from generally applicable norms on breach of the peace, which were deemed to be inapplicable to the dissemination of the Witnesses' religious message in public; W.Va. State Bd. of Educ. v. Barnette, 319 U.S. 624 (1943), overruling Minersville Sch. Dist. v. Gobitis, 310 U.S. 586 (1940), protecting Witnesses from enforced participation in the generally appplicable flag salute ceremony at government schools; and Murdock v. Pa., 319 US 105 (1943) and Follett v. McCormick, 321 U.S. 573 (1944), shielding Witnesses from burdensome taxation cloaked in generally applicable language, but fairly obviously intended to keep unwanted Witnesses out of town.
