Congress
shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the
free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or the press; or the right
of the people peacefully to assemble, and to petition the Government for a
redress of grievances.
It is comforting to know the government doesn’t have the control or power to stifle
U.S. citizen’s rights. I am glad I can practice any religion I believe in,
voice any opinion, hold any type of peaceful protest, and write and publish any
works legally done without any restrictions.
It
is no wonder so many people want come to America to embrace true democracy and
be given such an opportunity to practice these rights. The First Amendment is
what makes our great nation stand out. Without it, media, like journalism and
photojournalism, wouldn’t have the ability to print or photograph truth to the
people.
