The correct answer to this open question is the following.

I am going to choose the First Amendment to the United States Constitution.

The three specific arguments in favor of why this Amendment is necessary in a democratic society are the following.

1.- One of the most important characteristics of modern democratic societies is that citizens are free. Without freedom, there is no democracy.

2.- People have their own set of belief systems and they will always have them. It is intrinsic to human nature. No matter what religion people profess, it is their right.

3.- The right to assemble in a peaceful way to exchange ideas, no matter what kind of ideas, it's part of any democratic government and society in the world.

The two arguments against why this Amendment may no longer be necessary in today's America.

1.- It is so implicit that citizens have rights that will come a day in which this value of liberty would have no need to be part of a Bill of Rights.

2.- Science and the use of logic could be a substitute for the ingraining belief that people need religion to have something to believe in. When science could be able to explain it all through the use of reason, maybe there won't be the necessity to include freedom of religion as part of the Bill of Rights.

How are jury decisions in Louisiana different from those in most other US states?
grin007 [14]

In Louisiana Jury decision need not be unanimous.

Explanation:

Each and every Juror need not be convinced for the defendant' guilt. If the judges claim to be of similar opinion then the guilt proves to be reasonable but its not the majority of the judges opinion. Judges love this process as it expedites the deliberations and most of the cases are solved faster.

Unanimity is required in all criminal cases which are of third degree severity. In a state where the racial disparity is to the maximum and unanimity of jury persists then, there are many chances for the defendant to be convicted and sentenced to life in prison without parole based upon a 10-2 vote of the jury decisions.
