The exact quote from the declaration of independence inspired by John Locke was "They are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness." This gives all citizens of the country natural rights.

The Preamble quote that most specifically refers to natural rights: "[T]hey are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.”

John Locke was one of the first of the Enlightenment era philosophers.  The Enlightenment's emphasis on reason was in contrast to superstition and traditional beliefs.  The Scientific Revolution had shown that there are natural laws in place in the physical world and in the universe at large.  Applying similar principles to matters like government and society, using reason will guide us to the best ways to operate politically so as to create the most beneficial conditions for society.  This included a conviction that all human beings have certain natural rights which are to be protected and preserved.    Locke's ideal was one that promoted individual freedom and equal rights and opportunity for all.  Each individual's well-being (life, health, liberty, possessions) should be served by the way government and society are arranged.

They shall ban all kind of music from churches, in which, whether by the organ, or in the singing, there is mashed up of anything lascivious or impure, all secular actions, vain and therefore non religious or irrelevant talk, all walking about loud noise, that so the house of God may be seen to be called, a true house of prayer.

Why did the united states and japan become so successful at industrialization and political mobilization after 1860?
GaryK [48]

For the case of Japan, in 1868 new government of Japan underway after Shogun decided to reestablish prerogatives of the Emperor's removal in peace. Political style had altered from the shogunate to constitutional empire, which constitution was founded on German's Staatsrecht those days. Japan was reorganized and swayed by western society and culture but Japanese government didn't follow as same. Instead Japan adapt and select some parts of them only very suitable for them. Japan tried to draw near with West and USA. They completed a lot of allocation to get worldwide rational, knowledge and education for evading from the closed society (national isolation) in the world. 

For the case of the US, Twain and Warner were not erroneous about the era’s exploitation, but the years between 1877 and 1900 were likewise some of the utmost significant and active in American history. They set in signal advances that would mold the country for generations like the reunification of the South and North, the incorporation of four million anew unbound African Americans, westward growth, immigration, industrialization, and urbanization.

I am Lyosha [343]
The answer is cannot be punished. The right to due process and fair trial is guaranteed by the fifth amendment and it states that a person cannot be punished until the law has been fairly applied. This amendment also protects people for being sentenced twice for the same crime and allows people to remain silent if they wish.
