Well, this is disturbing. I’ll admit I wouldn’t have remembered “petition for redress of grievances” but not being able to name “freedom of speech” or “freedom of religion”?!?! Let us now shed a little tear for the state of public education.
Study: Few Americans know 1st Amendment
CHICAGO - Americans apparently know more about “The Simpsons” than they do about the First Amendment.
Only one in four Americans can name more than one of the five freedoms guaranteed by the First Amendment (freedom of speech, religion, press, assembly and petition for redress of grievances.) But more than half can name at least two members of the cartoon family, according to a survey.
