Answer 1

Religion, assembly, freedom from searches - freedoms for all. Government can't abuse power, double jeopardy no more, fair trials with lawyers. Cruel punishments are out, too. Some rights not written, like no slavery or equal voting, fought for and won. Later amendments added protections, securing fairness for all.
