I'd like to present (what I think is) the most important part:
Educate yourselves.

I'd like to present (what I think is) the most important part:
I. Freedom of Speech, Religion, Press; Right to Peaceably Assemble & Petition the Gov'tIt is critically important that you know your rights. Orwell wrote an iconic phrase: "Ignorance Is Strength". Truer words have seldom been spoken; the ignorance of the masses is all the elite require to stay in power.
II. Right of the People to Bear Arms.
III. Prohibits State-mandated housing of soldiers outside of Wartime.
IV. Prohibits unreasonable search and seizure. Establishes requirement for probable cause.
V. Rights dealing with criminal charges: Grand Jury, Double Jeopardy, Due Process, Eminent Domain, May not Self-Incriminate.
VI. Rights dealing with Trials: Fair and Speedy, Jury of Peers, Notification of Accusation, Right to Confront Accuser, Right to Obtain Witnesses, Right to Retain Counsel.
VII. Right to Trial by Jury in Civil Cases
VIII. Prohibits Cruel/Unusual Punishment, Excessive Bail/Fines
IX. Rights not expressly defined by Constitution are still the People's
X. Anything Power that isn't given to the Federal Gov't is either the State's or the People's, if it's not given to the State's.
Educate yourselves.

While it is important to know your rights, it is just as important to make sure they are never taken away. Which is what is happening now. With the bill passed saying that if you're suspected of or even a slight hair of a hint that you may or may not have terroristic thoughts or activity, they can bust in your house and take you away. No proof needed.
