All of the above responses are correct. The Bill of Rights protects individuals by restricting both the federal and state governments from abusing their natural rights. It ensures that the government cannot infringe upon certain fundamental rights, such as freedom of speech, religion, and the right to a fair trial. Additionally, it grants individuals protection against unreasonable searches and seizures by the local police, and it lists specific civil rights and provides penalties if they are not upheld. The Bill of Rights also empowers citizens by allowing them to have a say in determining which rules the government must follow.
