In the landmark 1973 Roe v. Wade decision, the Supreme Court ruled that abortion is constitutional, based on Ninth Amendment and 14th Amendment rights.

Freedom Of Speech

The First Amendment protects the freedom of religion, speech, press, assembly, and petition. These freedoms allow citizens to express their ideas, opinions, and beliefs—a hallmark of being American.

Civil Rightsd

Since the Constitutional Convention in 1787, the definition of “We the People” and the rights guaranteed by the Constitution have gradually expanded. The Bill of Rights and the 13th, 14th, 15th, 17th, 19th, 23rd, 24th and 26th Amendments guarantee essential rights, such as the right to vote, right to a fair trial, freedom of speech, and equal protection of the laws. The Supreme Court and Congress have played major roles in expanding those rights.

28th Amendment

In my opinion the 28th Amendment should be that anyone that would like to own a gun must go through a psychiatric evaluation. If that person is considered mentally unstable they will not be able to own a gun or any time of weapon.
