It allows every one to say what is on their minds without fear of being silenced by forces that may disagree with them. Everyone can either get criticized or praised for what they do. Because of this amendment it puts emphasis on behavior and power behind what a person says/does.  Another important amendment is the second amendment, because it gives citizens the ability to protect themselves and their family. The amendment process is discussed in Article five of the constitution. ]]> 2017-09-08 11:06:57 UTC https://padlet.com/jcatbagan/xuifqe5lcljp/wish/185815324 jcatbagan https://padlet.com/jcatbagan/xuifqe5lcljp/wish/185824313 Some changes to the constitution discussed in the CQ Researcher Article are changing the justices' term from them acting until they die/retire to a certain limit.
