On duty at the Courthouse that night was forty-year-old Mathias Schaffer. Schaffer was showing some visitors around the tower wh

en one of them pointed to smoke in the distance. Schaffer glanced at the smoke, but dismissed the sighting. It was just the smoldering embers from the previous night's fire, he assured them. Nothing to worry about." "Several minutes passed before Schaffer looked up from what he was doing and saw flames leaping wildly into the black sky. The light was from a different fire after all; he'd been fooled because this new blaze was almost directly behind the still-flickering remnants of the Saturday October 7 fire." What was the effect of Schaffer dismissing the sighting of smoke?

How does the bill of rights play a role today?
Alja [10]
The bill of rights play a role today, in that people living in the US are given rights such as the freedom of speech, assembly, religion, etc, and that the government should not try to interfere with a person living in the US's belief unless it starts to hurt other people. Without it, our citizens would not have been part of a democratic nation, and it would not have had a right to voice and do what they want (that is, while it is under the law)
