The 1st amendment is important because it gives us the right to express our views and values on any issue. We have the right to practice any religion we want to.

Brandon, the second amendment does allow us to own guns...but after recent acts of gun violence, many people disagree with the second amendment and feel it should be altered or repealed. How would you convince them that people should continue to have the right to bear arms?

Chloe, I definitely agree that the first amendment is important. I enjoy the right to respectfully agree or disagree with people, including our government. Can you imagine if we were not allowed to worship the religion of our choice?!?
