The Supreme Court interprets the extent of the protection afforded to these rights. The First Amendment has been interpreted by the Court as applying to the entire

I chose to cite the first amendment, because it states that all groups should be allowed to get together and hang out; as long as conflict is not started. That means, by banning skateboarding, the government is breaking the constitution, which is not allowed. This is the most important site to me, because it shows if the government bans skateboarding that is breaking the rules to the constitution. They cannot break the constitution, especially if it interferes with the citizens’ freedom. I feel if we let them get away with breaking this right, they will stop not there. Have you ever heard the saying “I give u an inch, and you take a mile”? That’s exactly what will happen if we don’t stop them in their tracks.

this cite tells about the first amendment, and the first amendment states what our rights are. it tells how the freedom of expression, give americans the freedom of speech, freedom of assembly, and the freedoms to get together with our groups. as long as no harm is caused to animals,property,people, or violence among eachother.
