The First Amendment established the: • freedom of religion
– The government cannot prevent you from practicing any religion you wish.
• freedom of speech– We are able to speak freely without censorship. Exceptions
include obscenity, harassment, lying under oath.
• freedom of the press– Reporters are able to report the news without fear of
punishment.
• freedom of assembly– People are able to gather in groups or protests – unless they
become dangerous.
• freedom to petition the government– Citizens can complain to the government without fear of arrest.

tThe Second Amendment:• protects citizens’ right to bear arms.– This right was included in order to ensure a strong
defense for the U.S. • At the time, the country did not have a strong
national army.
• The United States now has a strong army and does not need militias to defend its borders.
So, does America still need the Second Amendment? Discuss!

The Fifth Amendment established the following rights:
• Due process – the government must respect all of your rights and treat you equally under the law
• “Double jeopardy” – no one can be tried for the same crime a second time if found “not guilty”
• Freedom from “self-incrimination” – you cannot be forced to testify against yourself in court.
This is what people mean when they “plead the fifth.”
• Eminent domain – The government cannot take anyone’s property without some payment.

…• The Bill of Rights guaranteed certain
individual rights to the American citizens.– Individual rights are those rights or
privileges that belong to the people of any country. They cannot be taken away.
• The five freedoms in the First Amendment are an example of individual rights.– Freedoms of speech, the press, religion, assembly, and
petition.
• These rights are guaranteed to the people and cannot be taken away.

• Right to a jury trial – The accused can request a trial by jury instead of
a judge.• “Confrontation clause”– The accused have the right to see the accuser
face-to-face in court.• Right to counsel– “You have the right to an attorney. If you cannot
afford one, the government will appoint one for you.”

tThe Eighth Amendment:
• Doesn’t allow judges to set bail at an unusually high level – the punishment has to fit the crime.– The judge cannot set bail at $5 million if you were
charged with stealing a $2 toothbrush at Wal-Mart.
• protects citizens from “cruel and unusual punishment”– Not everyone agrees on what is “cruel and
unusual.”
Discuss: Is the death penalty “cruel and unusual punishment?”

tThe Ninth Amendment allowed for the protection of rights not specifically listed in the Constitution
– The rights of Americans are not limited to the ones written in the Bill of Rights.• This eased the Federalists’ (and Hamilton’s) fears
about the danger of a bill of rights under future leaders.

The Tenth Amendment reserved the remaining powers to the states.
THIS IS CALLED THE RESERVE CLAUSE.
– If any power is not assigned to the federal government in the Constitution, it goes to the state governments.
– This was for people who feared that the federal government would try to increase its power.
