I'll tell you one of the amendments as an example:

Amendment I: Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press, or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

Basically what it is saying is, when you live in America, you can be any religion, and say anything you want and print anything in the newspaper, and can form a union, and Congress cannot stop you. Of course, you are expected to show a manner of professionalism, and not abuse these laws. Like you cannot say lies to public and expect the law to back you up. Hope this makes sense.  :sweatdrop:
