1st amendment

1. Give a speech before a large gathering of people and express opinions about the president's abilities. This is protected by the first amendment because in the 1at amendment you have the freedom of speech.
7. Circulate a petition calling for the repeal of an unpopular law. In the 1at amendment it states that you can have a petition as long as nobody gets hurt.
8. Post your opinion on your blog about an issue being discussed at a local school board meeting. In the 1st amendment you can say or print anything that you want to as long as it is true.
The first amendment is important in my everyday life because if it was not for the first amendment we could not get together at school and learn about everyday issues, we could not speak our opinions about the issues that happen everyday. Also if the first amendment was not active we could not have our own religion we would have to go by the religion that the president went by.
