Bill of Rights

There is only one Bill of Rights and it has been unchanged since the first ten amendments to the US Constitution were adopted on December 15, 1791.

What amendments to the Bill of Rights have had the most impact on business?

What would business life be like without them?

Habeas Corpus is not part of any amendment in the Bill of Rights. Habeas Corpus is referenced in Article I, Section 9, Clause 2.

"The Privilege of the Writ of Habeas Corpus shall not be suspended, unless when in Cases of Rebellion or Invasion the public Safety may require it."

Perhaps it could be seen to have influenced the Sixth Amendment:

"In all criminal prosecutions, the accused shall enjoy the right to a speedy and public trial, by an impartial jury of the State and district wherein the crime shall have been committed, which district shall have been previously ascertained by law, and to be informed of the nature and cause of the accusation; to be confronted with the witnesses against him; to have compulsory process for obtaining witnesses in his favor, and to have the Assistance of Counsel for his defense."

Yes, obscene materials are protected; there are restrictions on their content, distribution and sale on a state by state basis.

Actually, "obscenity" is NOT protected by the First Amendment. A series of United States Supreme Court cases has confirmed that "obscenity" is not protected by the free speech clause of the First Amendment. The problem is defining what is and what is not "obscene." Early Supreme Court cases discussed criteria such as whether the material appeals to "prurient interests" and whether it has any redeeming social value. Community standards are mentioned. Perhaps because taste is so personal, courts have struggled classifying something as "obscene" and hence not entitled to constitutional protection. Justice Potter Stewart summed the problem up nicely when he wrote in one seminal decision: "I know it when I see it."

Is nudity obscene? Violence? Sexual exploitation? Sexual exploitation of children? Crush videos? In April 2010 the Supreme Court, in an 8-1 vote, invalidated restrictions on crush videos as violative of the First Amendment.

Nowadays, it seems the only true barrier that will be upheld in most courts is the usage of children (people under 18 years old) in depictions of nudity or sexual activity.

Interestingly, the familiar "G, PG, PG-13, R and NC-17" ratings are entirely voluntary. If challenged in court they would most certainly be thrown out. But they won't be challenged because film distributers have an "understanding" with the industry and people in Congress that they will continue to adhere to this rating system.

There is also a strong argument that the FCC (Federal Communications Commission) cannot ban curse words or nudity on broadcast TV. Supreme Court decisions decades old still grant the FCC broad power to regulate content. But the analysis of the FCC's regulation of limited airspace due to wavelength availability begins to break down when other sources such as cable, satellite TV and the Internet are considered.

In the end, it is simply the individual judgment of the adult that will decide what is and what is not "obscene."

Normally, state laws are signed by the Governor, and federal laws are signed by the President.

If the president does not sign, the bill will still become law in 10 days unless Congress goes out of session before the president has had the bill for 10 days.

the First Amendment protects the right to freedom of speech, religion, press, assembly andpetition.

No, it is a first amendment right. Freedom of religion and freedom of speech. You can preach out loud on any sidewalk, park, and public place. If you are a pastor, and collect a salary from a church body, you have to file for 501c3 non-profit organization status and report your income to the IRS, though you are tax exempt.

This Amendment was established in 1791 .

The Quartering Act of 2 June 1774, one of the Coercion Acts, was passed in Parliament after the Boston tea party in 1773. The Quartering Act provided that local authorities must provide quarters for British troops. If they failed to do so, the governor might compel the use of occupied buildings. Though two previous quartering acts had passed in the 1760s, this third act engendered greater opposition as tensions mounted between Parlaiment and Boston Whigs. The Boston patriots refused to repair the empty buildings that Gen. Thomas Gage had procured for quarters and thus forced the British troops to remain camped on the Boston Common until November 1774.
