A federal...bikenglishさん, よろしければ、a few suggestions:<br /><br />A federal judge <br />(The reader "swallows" the first word.)<br /><br />Richard<br />(second "r")<br /><br />First Amendment <br />(Amendments to the Constitution are capitalized.)<br /><br />the warnings were to have filled<br />(This grammar sounds strange and unnecessary to me, and doesn't match the grammar in the next sentence, but I think that's what he's saying.)<br /><br />half of the label<br />(article "the")<br /><br />were not designed<br />(past tense)<br /><br />and a dead body<br />(article "a")<br /><br />about half of the label<br />(article "the")<br /><br />increase the knowledge of the risks<br />(Article "the". 本当は that first "the" sounds strange to me.)<br /><br />without violating the Constitution<br />(article "the". As with constitutional amendments, the Constitution itself takes an initial capital letter.)<br /><br />appeal the ruling<br />(In legal terminology, "ruling" rather than "rule".)<br /><br />面白いですね。How/whether the First Amendment right to free speech applies to corporations (such as cigarette producers) has been a "hot-button issue" here in the US since (in 2010) the Supreme Court ruled that corporations could make unlimited contributions to politcal action committees and thus (indirectly) to political candidates. Very controversial!kinokage (木の陰)https://www.blogger.com/profile/16973123504817672921noreply@blogger.com
