Actually, the first amendment applies to the government, not people at all. Most of the bill of rights work that way. They're not things given to people, but things the government is barred from doing. So there's really no legal analysis necessary, the bulk of the bill of rights is pretty easily read and understood by the average person as intended. How can you stand for your rights if you don't know what they are? Anyway, here's the US 1st amendment: >Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances. I strongly recommend every American to at least read the bill of rights. It'll take you 5 minutes. Tangentially, you may notice while doing so that the TSA violates the 4th amendment millions of times a day.
