5th amendment

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 offense 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.

This states infamous crime, unless on a presentment or indictment of a grand jury, in other words you cant be trialed for the same thing twice.

I can speak my mind and go to any church i want and if i have a problem with the government i can speak my mind about it.


Colbert covers freedom of speech and religion in a very humorous way. he acts if he disagrees but actually is playing to the croud.
