But here’s the thing about rights. They’re not actually supposed to be voted on. That’s why they’re called rights. ~Rachel Maddow August 2010
The Second Amendment forms a fourth branch of government (an armed citizenry) in case the government goes mad. ~Larry Nutter

Quiz was too long.
Seniors boarding planes have the right to wear:
1. hearing aid
2. pants
3. depends
Or at least after full body scan.

Fourteen I got which is alright for a non-American
I think the Constitution is a wonderful thing. I wish
we had one over here. And no one say we have since
the Magna Carta is a bit old. Needs a bit of up dating

Did the quiz has a question about the Constitution being revoked by George Bush and is no longer applicable?

Why would a non-US citizen want to take a quiz on an amendment to the US constitution?

Because quizzes are fun

People think "queue" is just "q" followed by 4 silent letters.
But those letters are not silent.
They're just waiting their turn.

I got 15 correct. But some of the questions I just guessed on, based on the answered provided. If it weren't a multiple choice quiz, I would have done very poorly.

Got 16 too, 'depends' is always a good answer for a lot of things
When only criminals carry guns the police know exactly who to shoot!
