First Amendment When talking about the First Amendment, the law protects us from freedom of speech and free exercise of religion and it also stop congress from making any new law to prohibit free speech and free exercise. The case involving a Christian printer who refused to print gay pride T-shirts. The printer declined the printing job for T-shirts promoting a gay pride festival on religious grounds, but he did offered the customer to help them find other local printers to do the work for the same price. Based on the information that was provided the printer had a history of rejecting other orders for shirts promoting sexually explicit material/actions and violence. There are a couple of argument that he owner could argue about one would be is that it is his own business and he put his blood, sweat, and tears into the business. On top of that it was his own money that started the business without any government helps or assistances. No one should be forced to do anything against what they believe in. For example, you are an Asian business owner of a printing shop and a customer came in and requests to do a print job of a man holding chopstick and a bowl of rice, hanging by the neck with a rope with X as eyes and a tongue stick out of the mouth. Who would in their right mind take that job?
The second argument would be is that the owner has a right to decline to print anything against their belief, and a photographer gay or not has a right to decline to
I am against the Second Amendment which is the right to bare arms for several reasons. Growing up from the city of Chicago which is one of the most violent city's in the world I have seen a lot of violence. I have heard of a lot of relatives and people I knew or my friends knew where either killed or was shot. There was a lot of violence even before they had the conceal to carry law, so being all for the second amendment would go against I believed in. Growing up I never wanted to bare arms because I felt it should have been in the hands of the law to take care of criminals etc. and not kids or people themselves. Since moving to Las Vegas things are 100% different from where I come from. You still hear about people you
Your blog brought up many interesting points. It seems as though you are supporting the making of an amendment to counter the 2nd amendment in the Constitution. You stated that times have changed and you are absolutely right. There are not wild animals living on the streets nor are there state militias like there were in the 1700's. However, you also talked about the conservative view that many ignorant Republicans hold. I suggest that you check out this link http://heedinggodscall.org/content/pfctoolkit-10 as it has some astonishing numbers on injury or death related incidents due to firearms.

The Amendment left open possibilities, that states could establish voter qualifications equally to all races. Many states took advantage of this position, establishing poll taxes and literacy tests among other qualifications, which were prohibited later with help of Voting Rights Act.
Thank you for contacting me regarding H.R 2802, the First Amendment Act. I appreciate you taking the time to share your concerns with me.
According to Article V, there are two ways to propose amendments to the Constitution. The first of these is to have two-thirds of both houses of Congress vote to propose an amendment. The second way is if two-thirds of the legislature asks Congress to call a national convention to propose amendments. Amazingly, close to eleven thousand measures have been proposed since 1789 but only thirty-three have obtained the two-thirds vote.
When the original Articles of Confederation was drafted in 1777, a bill of rights was considered unnecessary. The U.S government was not considered a single national government, but an alliance of independent states. Since the national government has no power to restrict people’s rights, there was no need for laws to prevent it from doing so. During the Constitutional Convention of 1787 the Constitution was passed without a bill of rights. When the constitution was sent to the states for ratification, a debate broke out between the Federalists, who supported a strong national government, and the Anti-Federalists, who supported retaining the spirit of the Articles of Confederation . Although the constitution was passed without a bill of rights, some Anti-Federalists felt that that it would be worthwhile to specifically protect through constitutional amendments such individual rights as free speech, religious exercise, and jury trials. Thomas Jefferson who sided with Anti-Federalists on this matter, sent a letter in 1789 to James Madison to pass the bill of rights . Madison submitted a draft of his proposed bill of rights several months later, and Congress passed it modified version by the end of the year. After ratification by the states, the Final Bill of Rights consisted of ten amendments that covered a wide range of topics, guaranteeing citizens individual rights such as freedom of speech and religious liberty and protecting them from excessive bail, unwarranted searches,

The First Amendment is known for allowing the people of the United States to have freedom of religion. For Christians, it is a little more difficult. Whatever Christians do, we get penalized for. Someone always has to cause a commotion. For example, a local school, Russellville High School, had a very emotional time. One of their students had a four-wheeler accident and was in serious condition for a while. This student was a football player, a student, and a friend to many of the people on campus. This led some of the football players to ask to be
The First Amendment guarantees the right of free speech, but there are many other forms of the first amendment. The most common, is pure speech, which is the use of the spoken word to transport a particular idea. Another form is symbolic speech that refers to the use of symbolic objects or action to express an idea. Some examples of symbolic speech might be waving a flag or burning a cross. The First Amendment protects almost of forms of pure speech and symbolic speech. The First Amendment protects some of symbolic meaning, but not all. Congress argued that burning the American flag was of symbolic meaning to express political views
In Petra Christian University, I have taken several accounting subjects such as Principles of Accounting, Financial Accounting, Cost Accounting, Corporate Accounting, Managerial Accounting, and International Accounting.

Diamond’s arguments that parts of the world developed more quickly than others based on plant and animal availability for domestication, and the advantage of an east/west continental axis seem to hold some merit in explaining the roots of the “Great Divergence”. The Great Divergence is the period (around the 19th century) when Western Europe outpaced other parts of the world in terms of growth in technological, political, and economic development.
A very popular constitutional issue in America is the First Amendment. The First Amendment is meant to protect, but in today’s society it is being questioned that the argument is being overly used. The First Amendment of the United States Constitution protects the right to freedom of religion and freedom of expression from government interference (Esmaili). Freedom of religion created the separation of church and state. It prohibits the government from interfering with a person's practice of their religion. The right to freedom of speech allows individuals to express themselves without government interference or regulation. The right of freedom of expression gives the right to assemble and gather for peaceful and lawful purposes. It was adopted into the Bill of Rights in 1791. The Court later interpreted the Due Process Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment as protecting the rights in the First Amendment from interference by state governments. Putting this is layman’s term, you can pretty much say what you want without being penalized.
The First Amendment states, "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances."
Everyone is a member of different organizations in different occasions. Human activities are built on relationships (Homans, 2009, p. 1), so relevant researches about relationship began decades ago (Vangelisti & Perlman, 2006, p. ix). Leader-Member-Exchange (LMX) theory is a kind of leadership style, which concentrates on a dyadic relationship between leaders and members (Graen & Cashman, 1975). This is a long time history, people began to research relationships between leaders and followers, and affect that relationship impacts on leaders and follower (Graen & Uhl-Bien, 1995). Most of previous researches of LMX theory focused on members to claim high-quality LMX relationships could cause followers’ high job satisfaction, good work engagement because of the plentiful and abundant work resources (Breevaart et al., 2015, p. 754), and positive knowledge sharing (Hassanzadeh, 2014). Followers’ expectations also can be concentrated (Little, Gooty & Williams, 2015, p. 11).
