Before the advent of the Bill of Rights in 1791, the rights of the people were always infringed on. people were subjected to royal abuses of power, unlawful imprisonment with hard labor, heavy taxation and lots more. The Bill of rights was adopted to secure the rights of the people and to ensure that no state deprive it's citizens of the privileges and protections of the Bills of Rights.

The post Bill of Rights amendments also enforces individual liberty and right protection, which is the main reason it was adopted at first. The amendments still have the same meaning and importance, the only challenge is that the level of enforcement has now been watered down as opposed to when those amendments were first ratified

One day, he witnessed her sister gobbling up on pork as she was offered by her<em> Auntie Sonya. </em>This made the narrator feel disgusted for her sister, <em>although he knew that pork was delicious.</em> He actually envied her to the point of telling what she did to his father. He did it because he was envious how his parents treated them equally, when in fact, his sister broke a religious tradition. His father got furious and instead of punishing his sister, <u><em>the narrator was punished for being a traitor.</em></u>
