Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The First Amendment protects freedom of speech, including the right to express religious beliefs. Therefore, Heather's claim that her right to hold up a banner with a religious slogan is protected by the U.S. Constitution is likely valid. The Fourth Amendment protects against unreasonable searches and seizures, the Sixth Amendment guarantees the right to a fair trial, and the Ninth Amendment protects unenumerated rights not specifically listed in the Constitution, none of which are relevant to Heather's situation.
