WHAT RIGHTS DID WE HAVE?

By:Tyliya Moses

RULE OF LAW...

  • Every member of society must obey the law(no one is above the law)
  • means that no matter if you're rich or poor, you still have to follow all laws
  • Example: if the president ran a red light, then he has to pay the ticket he gets.

MAGNA CARTA
*had to be consulted on the levying of taxes and to have their rights protected by a jury of their peers.
*Means that they could have all of their rights protected.

ENGLISH BILL OF RIGHTS

  • Granted religious freedom, limited the power of the king, people have the right to be protected
  • People didnt have to believe in one certain thing, anyone had the right to be protected
  • Just like the mid atlantic colonies, they had religous freedom.
