The Second Amendment: The Right To The First Amendment

The right I chose is the first amendment. The first amendment tells of the right of freedom of speech, freedom of expression, freedom of religion, and freedom of press. In other words this amendment is giving people the right to voice their opinion, and physically express themselves in any form, the most popular being clothing. This right guarantees that people may say what they want to whom they want. Although many things people may say can be frowned upon and not agreed with, people can voice their opinions and can use their right for good reasons.
