The purpose of the Bill of Rights of the U.S. Constitution <u>was to protect individual rights.</u>

The bill was demanded by several states who deemed necessary the creation of amendments that specifically protected individual liberties from government abuse of power that wasn't nowhere established in the Constitution of 1787.

The Bill of Rights, consisting of 10 amendments, lists limitations of government's power and states liberties of people, for example, it guarantees freedom of religion, freedom of press, people's right to enjoy a speedy and public trial by an impartial jury in criminal prosecutions, people's right to be free from unreasonable government intrusion in their homes through the requirement of a warrant, among others.
