What are the amendments in the Bill of Rights?

The Bill of Rights is comprised of the first ten amendments to the United States Constitution. They were put into effect in 1791, after they had been ratified by 3/4 of the states. The First Amendment protects freedom of religion, freedom of speech, freedom of the press, the right to peaceably assemble, and the right to petition the Government. The Second Amendment protects the right to bear arms. The Third Amendment protects us from being forced to quarter troops. The Fourth Amendment protects us from unreasonable search and seizure. The Fifth Amendment allows us due process when we are accused of a crime, the freedom from "double jeopardy"-- being tried for the same crime twice, freedom from being compelled to testify against ourselves, and the right of "eminent domain," which means that private property cannot be taken for public use without just compensation. The Sixth Amendment guarantees the right to trial by jury in criminal cases, as well as other rights of the accused, such as a speedy and public trial and the right to legal counsel. The Seventh Amendment guarantees the right to trial by jury in civic cases. The Eighth Amendment protects us from excessive fines and from cruel and unusual punishment. The Ninth Amendment states that, just because some laws are specifically laid out in the Bill of Rights, that does not mean that the others are taken away. The Tenth Amendment states that all powers not specifically given to the federal government belong to the states or to the people.

What is the puropose for the 4 amendment?

The 4th Amendment prevents unreasonable search and seizure. Originally, this was a reaction to English troops demanding quarter of residents of the colonies, and helped defend rights and privacy of citizens... until the 1960s. That's when courts started weakening the amendment, allowing government to access information that you shared with other people or companies without a warrant. This has had disastrous effects during the digital age.
