In Bill of Rights Day, Tim Lynch reviews how each of the ten admendments is currently treated in the United States today. For example:
----------
The First Amendment says that Congress “shall make no law … abridging the freedom of speech.” Government officials, however, insist that they can make it a crime to mention the name of a political candidate in an ad in the weeks preceding an election. They also insist upon gag orders in thousands of federal investigations.
----------
It might be good to review with your children Tim's analysis of all ten amendments.
