Amendments A girl named Milly is thirteen. It is the beginning of 8th grade. She is a really smart and nice. She had the best grades out of the 7th grade. She has lots of friends too. There was this boy that she really likes from last year named Tony. Her friends started to notice that Milly like Tony. They talked to her into asking him out. When Milly asked, Tony was really nice and said yes. They found out they had a lot in common. They both study hard and get good grades; they are interested in the same music. One thing they found out also was they Milly is Christian and Tony is Buddhist. A year has passed and they have become a couple in high school. One day Milly asked Tony to come over for dinner so he can meet her parents. He said it would be fine. Tony got to meet the family that night. At the table, the parents asked many question about his school and his family. He mentioned to the Milly’s parents that his family is Buddhist. After Tony left the house to go home, Milly had a talk with her parents. Her parents were very strict about their religion and didn’t want Milly to date Tony anymore because he was Buddhist. She argued with her parents and was sent to her room. She cried herself to sleep. The next day she told Tony what her parents had said. One of her friends heard the problem and decided to post it on Facebook. Milly’s friend used fake names so it wouldn’t affect Milly’s problem as much. Of course, most of the school saw it. One person commented on the post and said “ T he 1st amendment says you can choose to believe in one or not to practice any religion at all. You can also have a right to change your religion.” Milly saw that comment and though this might help her in her problem. Tony was kind of sad too ever since Milly told him that her parents wouldn’t let her date him. Milly showed Tony the comment on Facebook. He felt better after reading it. Tony said “When we become adults; we can make our own choices to change or not.” Even though Milly’s parents forbid her from seeing Tony, they can still see each other at school. The first year of high school has passed. There were ups and downs but Tony and Milly are still together. One afternoon on a Saturday, Milly was look ing for something for school. She keeps looking in her room but she can’t find it. She looks in the other places that can stores stuff. Her parent’s room was the last place she hadn’t look yet. So she looks in the closet of the room. The closet was big so it took awhile to search the whole place. She ran across a dent in the wall. Milly though it was strange because there was a little hook next to the dent. Milly took off the hook to see what would happen. The little door opened and Milly saw a lot of dust. When the dust cleared away, she saw two guns sitting there. She quickly locked the door up and ran to her room. She couldn’t believe that her parents would keep one. She thought that only polices, F.B.I. and other jobs that are allowed to have a gun would be the only people who could have them. On Monday, she asked Tony if people like your parent could own guns. They both looked it up and they found out that Amendment 2 allows people to own guns. They asked their teacher about it and he said people can own guns. The teacher said “But there are laws about gun ownership, registration, permits, transportation of guns, and the purchase of guns.” When walking out from class to lunch, Milly keeps hearing about the high school expanding to a bigger size. When she went home, she also heard her parents discussing about moving to a different house. She wondered why. About a week later, the school announce about the school area getting bigger. The ASB president said “Some of the owners who live in the houses on the left side of the school will be asked to leave by the government. The owners will have to find a new home. The government will pay the owners of those houses because of the fifth amendment.” Milly lives on the left side of the school. Now she gets why her parents are searching for a new home. On the weekends, her family went looking at some houses. They found one not to far from school so they decided to get the house. Few weeks later, they moved to the new house and she soon graduated from high school.

Controversial U.S. Constitution Amendments

1. Amendment 1: //"//Excessive bail shall not be required, nor excessive fines imposed, nor cruel and unusual punishments inflicted."

2. Expository text explaining if biased or or not 3. Two Articles:

In Favor:

([]) Againist the Amendment: []

4. My opinion: it think it's bad because if someone does a smaller crime then you but the person has a bigger fine then u have, it's not right.
