We spent class on Friday discussing the 1st Amendment and how one could interpret the 2 religion clauses within it as a way to dissect the constitutionality of a law requiring students to recite the Pledge of Allegiance.
Well, it brings me great governmental excitement to say that there are several other phrases and ideas within the Bill of Rights that can be interpreted in myriad ways. Therefore, your extra credit task for the week is to take a look at our first 10 Amendments and find something that can be interpreted it multiple ways. Explain these perspectives and conclude with your argument in regards to how this amendment/phrase/idea should apply today.
