There are many Amendments in The Bill of Rights and all of the rights are to the constitution to the United States. The purpose of the The Bill of Rights is to protect individuals liberties. The Bill of Rights was written in 1789 and was ratified in December 15, 1791, James Madison wrote The Bill of Rights and he was the one to guide it through the New Constitution. The amendment that I chose was the First Amendment. The First Amendment is The freedom of religion and expression:the freedom of the press, the right to assemble to protest and petition the government. To me the First Amendment means that you have the right to freedom of expression and be allowed to express who you are without being judged. This amendment was added to The Bill of Rights and it’s for people to have freedoms in the U.S. This Amendment is important because if not there would have been many angry people in the U.S because they wouldn’t have any freedom to do anything.Some past issues are recording another citizen’s arrest which lead to getting arrested by the police for recording which violates what the First Amendment stands for. There are always two sides to anything and these are the two sides of the First Amendment. The first side, Side A is some believe that social media should censor what we show to everybody because everybody may be shocked by it. Another side, Side B is some people believe that social media shouldn’t censor what we post because people should accept how in the world it isn’t
The Constitution and the Amendments are two very important documents that are needed in order to keep the people of America in order. The purpose of the Constitution is to, “form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity” (Constitution Preamble). The purpose of the Bill of Rights and the 17 Amendments, bringing the total to 27, are to protect the rights of the people of America and to prevent the government from having full control over the people.
When considering situations where censorship is necessary, it is important to analyze who might need protection. Often, children need to have the material they watch censored, because they themselves cannot distinguish how raw the material they are watching is. We need to protect our youth, as well as people of all other ages from that kind of raw material. It is possible that the material could be something of the hating nature. I believe that even though hate speech is not a possitive use of free speech, it is a right that is everyone's to practice. It is only when that speech begins to flirt with the idea of doing something about that hate, and possibly putting people in risk, when it should be controlled. There are
The first amendment is what it means to be a human, and what it means to be able to live your life everyday without any restrictions. It is very important because if we didn't have the right to free speech we wouldn't see any change in this world. You should have the right to be who you are, and believe in anything you want to, and this amendment allows us to do that and be free everyday in our life. The Fifth amendment reads that, "No person shall be held to answer for a capital, or otherwise infamous crime, unless on a presentment or indictment of a grand jury, except in cases arising in the land or naval forces, or in the militia, when in actual service in time of war or public danger; nor shall any person be subject for the same offense to be twice put in
To further strengthen the rights of the people, The Bill of Rights was ratified on December 15, 1791. With only the first ten amendments, it is no accident that two amendments, 9 and 10, specifically define the Constitutions purpose to protect rights, given to the government from the people; and the powers of the government are “only those delegated to it by the Constitution on behalf of the people” (Spalding, Page 145).
This amendment has caused great controversy all over the world. The First Amendment was added to the constitution fast because many of America’s new immigrants demanded that they be allowed to express themselves however they wanted to. They wanted the right to express their religion and ways of thinking without
The first amendment is the by far one of the most important amendments in the bill of rights, it grants citizens freedom of speech, press, assembly, and freedom of religion. Without these essential freedoms we would not be able to speak freely, worship freely, and we would not be able to critique our government or those in positions of power, etc. The first amendment states:
The Bill of Rights is one of the most essential documents produced in the United States. It was written September 25, 1789 and was approved December 15, 1791 written by James Madison. The purpose of this document is to protect citizens from excessive government power.
The 1st reason why this amendment is important is because, it is the Amendment that protects people, who live in the United States, freedom of religion. Freedom of Religion is important for many reasons. One of the reasons is because it allows everyone to believe in whatever, or whoever they want to. The first Amendment allows all who live in the country to attend any church, or none at all. Amendment One also makes people feel safe whenever a
The Bill of Rights and the 14th amendment are very important aspects of our government and the way it functions. The Bill of Rights, or the first ten amendments, was ratified in 1791. The 14th amendment was ratified 77 years later, in 1868. Thesel 11 amendments were created to protect the rights of the people. Before the Constitution was ratified, the anti-federalists demanded a Bill of Rights be attached. Afraid of the government gaining too much power like Britain had before, the anti-federalists would not support the Constitution until a Bill of Rights was guaranteed. Eventually, the Founding Fathers ensured the people that a Bill of Rights would be added directly after the Constitution was ratified. James Madison wrote the list of ten amendments

Liberty is defined by Merriam-Webster as freedom from external (as governmental) restraint, compulsion, or interference in engaging in the pursuits or conduct of one's choice to the extent that they are lawful and not harmful to others and enjoyment of the rights enjoyed by others in a society free of arbitrary or unreasonable limitation or interference.(“Liberty.” Merriam-Webster, Merriam-Webster, www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/liberty.)
