the bill of rights makes America superb!:D
China does have a Bill of Rights, however it is not effective in upholding human rights for people in China. So in practice it is different to that of the US Bill of Rights, where government knows that if it makes laws inconsistent with its Bill of Rights then the courts can rule it out. The Chinese bill of rights is not enforceable or has not been consistently enforced. China does have a bill of rights and it is entrenched in their constitution, the bill of righs is section II of their constitution. In this manner it is very much like the US bill of rights in its structure though of course the substantive matter differs.
They wanted protections against tyranny of the central government.
No the Bill of Rights is not dead because that is what pretty much makes up our Constitution. (Hope this helps a lot!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)
Bill or rights guarantees.
The Bill of Rights balances the constitution simply because the Bill of Rights (first ten amendments) states all the rights to US citizens, rights that can not be taken away. The constitution grants and limits power ergo giving rights to citizens makes things fair. The power is distributed fairly with out the fear of losing what you are legally entitled to.
