How do due process and equal protection help guarantee your constitutional rights

Well it has to do with the Amendments, the first Amendment which talks about due process and rights would be the 5th Amendment which guarantees your Miranda Rights (Miranda vs. Arizona) This is the first step. The Miranda Rights is what you see in those cop movies where the police say “You have the right to remain silent, anything you say can be used in court. You have the right to an attorney. If you can’t get one we will provide you one....” or something close to those lines.

The other Amendment which talks about due process and protection is 14th Amendment which states: “No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.” Section. 2.

There is also something about a speedy and fair trial.

So yes the answer to your question is that guarantees your constitutional rights because we have Amendments for these. All Americans have the right to a fair, speedy trial. And no one is guilty with a claim against them—-this is why it’s known as Innocent UNTIL PROVEN guilty.

The 5th Amendment is quoted like this: “No person shall be held to answer for a capital, or otherwise infamous crime, unless on a presentment or indictment of a Grand Jury, except in cases arising in the land or naval forces, or in the Militia, when in actual service in time of War or public danger; nor shall any person be subject for the same offence to be twice put in jeopardy of life or limb; nor shall be compelled in any criminal case to be a witness against himself, nor be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor shall private property be taken for public use, without just compensation.”

PS. The reason why the 5th Amendment is known as Miranda rights is Because Mr. Miranda was in trouble because a sex crime but he found that the cops didn’t read him his rights when they arrested him

Describe the role of armies according to Machiavelli in Chapters 12-14. Pay specific attention to why they must be strong, have
yulyashka [42]

A prince's military is a metaphor of his own country. Their country is considered united if it is mostly composed of his own men, yet "if one holds his states based on [auxiliaries and mercenaries], [his state is] neither firm nor safe" and is not united. Machiavelli explains that losing a situation with auxiliaries and mercenaries is the same as  "one is undone, and winning, one is their captive". According to Machiavelli, a price should always be prepared for war since war is "the sole art that belongs to him who rules".

Why did movie theaters become an important source of entertainment during the Depression?
trasher [3.6K]

The second alternative is correct (B).

During the Great Depression the film industry became the great highlight of the arts.

The 1930s and 1940s were considered the Golden Age of Cinema. The technologies developed at the time made the films more realistic and cinema was replacing the Theater in the position of main source of entertainment.

G<u>oing to the movies became a social event, so people, tired of the effects of the Great Depression, used the film sections as a source of leisure and socialization, which was good for the minds of people in financial depression.</u>

How many months are in 80 years
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

12 times 80 = 960 weeks

Weeks to months

Months in total = 220

Total weeks = 960

You could also do it the long way by doing it by addition but I think multiplication is better.
