Constitutional Rights
Take a StandThe Patriot Act is a controversial law. Its writers
hoped to prevent more terrorist attacks. But some
people think that it gives the government too much
power and violates people’s privacy. What do you
think? Is the Patriot Act a necessary law? Or does it
go against our constitutional rights?

Another ViewAs you know, every source is different. Ask a
librarian or another adult to help you find a
source that shows different views of the Second
Amendment right to bear arms. Write a short essay
comparing and contrasting the points of view. How
are they similar and why? How are they different
and why?
