What is one right included in the First Amendment?
Right to bear arms
Freedom of religion
Free speech
Right to Privacy
The correct answer is: Free speech
The First Amendment of the United States Constitution grants American citizens a number of important rights. While all of these rights are crucial to protecting individual freedoms, only one of the options listed is specifically mentioned in the text of the First Amendment free speech. This is the right to express oneself freely, without censorship or fear of persecution by the government. Option A, the right to bear arms, is actually included in the Second Amendment. Similarly, option D, the right to privacy, is not explicitly mentioned in the First Amendment, but has been inferred by the Supreme Court as a fundamental right. Option B, freedom of religion, is included in the First Amendment's freedom of speech and expression clause, but is also explicitly protected by the First Amendment's Establishment and Free Exercise clauses. Thus, while all of these options may represent important rights, free speech is the specific right mentioned in the First Amendment itself.
