Cool answers. Yes, of course; I teach. It should be a prerequisite for teachers.

I have read the Declaration of Independence, The Constitution, and the Bill of Rights. I have a copy of each at my home.

Yes I read the bill of rights, and the constitution , today it has no meaning no more then the funny paper that come with the Sunday paper. It is educational yet the present USA Government operate under their own private bill of rights, and the constitution, and make up things to make it better for them, they do not have your best interest in mind.

Many times.
My boss (when I worked for DOD) said I was a trouble maker because I kept a copy of the Constitution and Bill of Rights on my desk.
I purchased an "illuminated" copy of the Constitution and donated it to the school where my wife was the librarian, and it was posted on the walls of the library for many years.
It is amazing to me how many of our elected employees have apparently never been exposed to it. Just as a lot of experts on various religions have never read the written basis of those religions.
But then book burners usually have not read the books they condemn, have they?

Yes, and Yes.
I hope that you teach that the rights are for each individual to be protected from groupthink and bullies, rather that the generic teaching I received about 'protecting everyone' or all the usual hype about the 'rights of minorities'.
I want to know how Corporations can in any way be considered individual persons to be protected by those rights or the amendments that go with them.

Not only that, but I've read Supreme Court decisions interpretting some of the amendments. One learns even more by doing that.

Everyone in the Boy Scouts that gets the Citizenship in the Nation merit badge (required badge for Eagle rank) has read the Bill of Rights.
Everyone should read it now. Before the president wipes his butt with it.

I actually have a pocket Constitution. It folds up to the size of a matchbook. I know, weird.
